Shortcut to clear clipboard.md

I found some instructions to create a shortcut that will clear your clipboard when you double-click on it. You can follow the instructions below to create your own shortcut: Clear Clipboard Shortcut

Right-click on the desktop or elsewhere, and choose New==>Shortcut from the menu.

Then in the shortcut location box, enter the following command:

cmd /c “echo off | clip”

Make it even better by tweaking the icon: If you click the Change Icon button and then browse down to this file, you can find a clipboard icon:

%SystemRoot%\system32\shell32.dll
