Windows app to hold multiple items in clipboard?

Question

I am looking for a simple [tag:gratis] [tag:windows] app that will extend the [tag:clipboard] to hold multiple items. I don't need much, and would like to keep it simple. Just something that will extend the clipboard to hold 2 or more items. I do not want it to write the clipboard contents to non-volatile storage (e.g. hard drive) each time something is copied to the clipboard. The app shouldn't affect normal operation of the clipboard (using it to copy-paste a single item). I have a strong preference for [tag:portable] software, or at least something without and installer. Must be compatible with [tag:windows-7].

To my knowledge, there is no official app by Microsoft you can download on Windows but there is a way to view what you added to your clipboard.

Here are some steps you can take:

1. If you haven't already, go to your Windows settings, navigate to the "Clipboard" section, and enable "Clipboard history."
2. Copy stuff using Ctrl+C; that will add it to the clipboard
3. To view your items you've added to the clipboard, press the Windows Key+V.
4. A list will show up. To add stuff from that clipboard into whatever needs it, just click it and then it will show up.

Hope this helps!
