Installation and startup

First, download Clibor and extract the ZIP file to a folder of your choice.

Download
Download the latest official version of Clibor and find supported languages and older releases.

Do not save Clibor in C:\Program Files.
Windows UAC may interfere with its functionality.
Save Clibor in a folder outside of Program Files.

To start using Clibor, simply run Clibor.exe.

If SmartScreen appears, click "More info".

Clibor is a safe application, so click "Run anyway" to proceed. Once you complete this step, SmartScreen will not block Clibor again.

This screen appears once on first launch and after each upgrade.
Click on "Start using Clibor" to begin.

Once launched, Clibor runs quietly in the system tray and automatically monitors the clipboard.

However, Clibor's icon may be hidden in the system tray, as shown below. In that case, click the arrow to reveal it.

To pin it to the visible tray area, drag the icon as shown.

How to open the menu

Right-click on the Clibor icon in the system tray to open the menu.
For example, to open the settings screen, click on "Preferences" as shown below.

Create a startup shortcut

If you add Clibor to Windows startup, it will launch automatically when Windows starts.
You can easily add or remove the startup shortcut from the Preferences menu.

Showing the main screen

This is the main screen of Clibor.

To show it, press the Ctrl key twice quickly.
You can also assign a different hotkey to open it.

Preferences > Hotkey

To show the main screen using the mouse, left-click on the Clibor icon in the system tray.

You can also use startup parameters to control how the main screen is triggered.
For example, you can link it to mouse gestures in other apps.

Icons

Clibor's icon changes depending on the mode.

FIFO/LIFO Mode

Clipboard monitoring stopped

Auto text formatting on

The icon will flash whenever the clipboard is updated, so you can tell at a glance when new content has been copied.

If you like, you can also have Clibor play a sound whenever the clipboard is updated.

That covers the basics. Next, let's look at working with your clipboard history.
