TextTemplateManager 2.3.5

A hotkey-driven text-template paste tool for Windows: organize reusable snippets in folders, give them shortcuts, and paste them into any application from a global Quick Paste window.

Install

Get TextTemplateManager from the Microsoft Store. The Store installs and updates it; no administrator rights are needed. In a company it can also be deployed with winget or Intune (see the Administrator & Deployment Guide below).

Coming from TextTemplateManager 1: your templates and settings are backed up at the first start and imported in one step if you choose so; version 1's data folder is left as it was.

Note — Remote Desktop (RDP): If TextTemplateManager runs on both your local computer and a remote computer you connect to over RDP, the global Quick Paste hotkey always opens Quick Paste on the local computer — Windows delivers a registered global hotkey locally, so it never reaches the remote session. Give each machine a different Quick Paste hotkey, or run only one instance, to avoid the clash.

What's new in this release

Updates that download on their own, also where automatic Store updates are turned off.

Fixed

  • Check for updates didn't download an update it had already found when you clicked it within 30 minutes of the last check; it now downloads it right away.
  • The tray menu showed Restart to update without an update ready, and clicking it did nothing. It now appears only with an update ready.
  • A download that failed once said the Store couldn't download the update at all and pointed to Windows Update. It now shows the error with Try again, which downloads again straight away.

Improved

  • Settings ▸ General ▸ Updates has the update's next step itself: its button becomes Download, Try again or Restart to update, so you don't need to go back to the main window.
  • Automatic updates also download where automatic Store updates are turned off, with Check for and download updates automatically on (unless your organization doesn't allow it). Until now you had to click Download.
