Installation and startup
First, download Clibor and extract the ZIP file to a folder of your choice.
To start using Clibor, simply run Clibor.exe.
If SmartScreen appears, click on “More info”.
Clibor is a safe application, so click on “Run anyway” to proceed. This screen will only appear the first time you run Clibor.
This screen appears once on first launch and after each upgrade.
Click on “Start 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.
Quit
Clibor will automatically close when Windows shuts down, so you can usually leave it running.
If you want to quit Clibor immediately, right-click on the system tray icon and select “Quit”.
Icons
Clibor’s icon changes depending on the mode.
Normal
FIFO/LIFO mode
Clipboard Monitoring Stopped
Automatic Formatting Enabled
The icon will flash whenever the clipboard is updated, so you can tell at a glance when something new has been copied.
That covers the basics. Next, let’s look at working with your clipboard history.
