    Then something is wrong. The Windows-native clipboard history does not have advertising.

    Hi Danz,
    I am Sumit here to assist you with this question.

    Let us try if restarting the Explorer process helps.

    Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager. You may need to select More details at the bottom of the window to see everything.

    Select the Processes tab.

    Scroll down to Windows Explorer, select it, then select Restart.

    The process may take a few seconds, and your taskbar and Start menu may not be visible while Windows Explorer restarts. You can close Task Manager when the process is complete.

    Good luck and keep us posted.

    Thank youuuuu. This worked for me. Got my Window+V and Windows+period for Emoji 💃🏿💃🏿

    Edit 29 April 2024: Happened again. Had the trusty process. Why does it keep happening though 🤷🏿‍♀️

    Had the same problem but it was Razer causing it!

    Razer Keyboard Setting "Gaming Mode" was enabled.

    Wanted to share in case someone also has this version of the issue.

    Solution:

    -Type Razer Synapse in your windows search tool/Windows key+S. (this is the program you have installed for razer products).

    -Select your keyboard

    -Scroll down and you'll see GAMING MODE with a dropbar.

    -Select the dropbar and select OFF.

    Now you can use your windows key again!
