BetterClipboard 0.2.2

BetterClipboard 0.2.2 — groups for the things you reuse, and ShareX screenshots straight into your history

irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Nucs/BetterClipboard/main/install.ps1 | iex

Updates in place and keeps your history. The installer verifies the download's SHA-256 and closes the
running BetterClipboard gracefully.

• Groups. The new bookmark button next to Pause (or Ctrl+G) widens the panel to the left and shows
  a column of icons. The clipboard logo at the top is your whole history.

  • Press + to make a group: give it a name if you like and pick one of 64 icons.
  • Drag any card onto a group's icon to add it. The card then shows that group's icon.
  • Click an icon to see only that group (search and the filter tabs still work inside it). Click it
    again, or the logo, to go back to everything.
  • Right-click a card → Remove from …, or use Groups in the same menu. Right-click an icon to
    rename it, change its icon or delete it. Deleting a group never deletes its items.
  • Items in a group are kept like pinned items: no retention limit (count, age, size) removes them
    and Clear skips them. When an item leaves its last group, its retention clock starts over. It
    won't be removed just because it is old, and it keeps its place in the list.

• ShareX screenshots. With ShareX installed, every screenshot it saves is in
  your history the moment the file is written, and the panel gets a ShareX tab.

  • BetterClipboard reads ShareX's own settings (personal folder, screenshots folder, subfolder patterns,
    per-hotkey folders) and imports only from folders those can produce, so other images saved nearby
    stay out. UploadersConfig.json, where ShareX keeps upload credentials, is never opened.
  • Screenshots saved while BetterClipboard wasn't running arrive at its next start (up to the 100
    newest). The first time, only new screenshots count; your existing archive is left alone.
  • Thumbnails, GIF recordings and everything taken while Pause capturing is on are skipped. Turn the
    feature off in Settings › ShareX screenshots.

• Esc on an item's menu closed the whole panel. Now it closes just the menu. Other keys pressed in a
  menu (arrows, Enter) now go to the menu too. Before, they moved the selection and pasted the card
  underneath.

• The Menu key (or Shift+F10) showed a lone "Paste" menu instead of the item's menu.

Everything new in 0.2.0 (the bclip command line, password managers ignored out of the box, dragging the
panel, and more) is described in the 0.2.0 release.

File	What
BetterClipboard-0.2.2-win-x64.zip	App + bclip for x64 PCs (self-contained)
BetterClipboard-0.2.2-win-arm64.zip	App + bclip for ARM64 PCs (self-contained)
SHA256SUMS.txt	SHA-256 of both zips (install.ps1 checks it)
install.ps1	The installer / updater / uninstaller

• Groups live in your encrypted history. An older BetterClipboard can still open it, but its retention
  doesn't know about groups and may remove grouped items that are over the limits.
• The Microsoft Store build of ShareX hasn't been tested yet.
• Not code-signed yet: a zip downloaded with a browser may trigger SmartScreen; the PowerShell installer is
  unaffected.
