Hi
Anyone knows how it works with sticky password? And have it got automatic cleaning of things like passwords etc?

I’m confused by the licensing rules. The version on offer here seems to be the Personal Licence (list price : 20 $). However, I can’t see any difference with the Free Personal License.

The rules for the paying version are :

You can use the program for non-commercial purposes in non-business, non-commercial environment. That is, you only intend to use it at home for private use.

And the rules for the free version are :

1. The program is used on a private computer (except for cases where a home computer is a workstation – telework, freelance work, own business)
2. The program is used on a private computer for work and your average combined income over the previous 6 months is under $1000/month
3.The program is used by in a not-for-profit organization

So, what’s the difference ? Actually, the free license covers more uses than the paying one ! You can use it to work from home provided you earn little, and for non-profit work, whereas the 20 $ version does not allow either ! That does not seem to make any sense… Also, are there functional differences between the Personal Licence and the Free Personal License, as offered on the developer’s website ?

CLIPDIARY Won’t install [Window Title]

Hi Rob,

Yes, both programs allow what you want.

Clip Diary is slightly better, and more intuitive, in that respect. All you have to do is :

1. Right-click icon.
2. Tick, or untick, Monitor Clipboard.

Outertech Clipboard History is only slightly more difficult, with 3 steps instead of 2 :

1. Click icon.
2. Click Configure.
3. Tick, or untick, Monitor Clipboard.

However, it’s Clip Diary approach which is right for this precise function : toggling the monitoring of the clipboard is not perceived as a configuration issue. It’s perceived as enabling or disabling the program, and as such, it should be available right away, at level 1 of the command hierarchy.

As an aside, Outertech Clipboard History has that critical possibility of easily deleting the accumulated clippings that Clip Diary makes so difficult to access :

1. Click icon.
2. Click Delete All History Entries, which is immediately obvious.
(Or Delete Clipboard Content, if you only want to clear the contents of Windows’ Paste function.)

In Clip Diary, to do the same thing, you have to jump through these ridiculous hoops :

1. Click the icon to open main window.
2. Stare at a hundred available options, and click File, just in case.
3. Stare at a dozen available options, and click Database, just in case.
4. Wonder whether you should click on Empty Database or Clean up Database.
5. If you guessed right (Empty Database), click OK to clear the confirmation box “Do you want to delete all the records from the database ?”
6. If you made the wrong guess (Clean up Database), then you can still delete your stash of clippings, but you have to navigate more hurdles and make even more untractable guesses :
7. Don’t Open Folder, Click Next.
8. Stare stupidly at next screen which no sane person can understand, and tick Plain Text, Rich Text and HTML just in case.
9. Click Preview just in case it helps.
10. Realise Preview does not give you any “view”, but tells you instead, in the same box, that “0 clips are selected from x”. Selected for deletion, presumably. So, wrong move.
11. Untick Process Only Clips Older that x Days.
12. Click Preview, and watch the message “x clips selected from x”. So, that was the correct option !
13. Click Delete.
14. Click OK to clear “Are you sure you want to delete clips ?”.
15. Be satisfied with the message “x clips were deleted, 0 still in database”.

See what I meant in my review, on the main page ?

Has anyone been able to run this in Vista? Works great on my Win 10 pc, so I installed it on the Vista machine. No errors during installation but when I run ClipDiary I get this message:

clipdiary.exe – Entry Point Not Found
_________________________________________________________________
(X) The procedure entry point K32GetProcessImageFileNameW
could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll

[Ok]

Clicking Ok causes this message:

Microsoft Windows
_____________________________________________
clipdiary.exe has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working
correctly. Please close the program.

=> Close the program

Does anyone know what’s happening or how to fix this? Thanks in advance!!!!

XP cannot install this program (ver 5).
If you download ver 3.9 from the site, it will install.
