Options - Clipboard

In the program's Options (Edit → Options or F10), the tab Clipboard allows you to configure the following settings:

Clipboard

  • Delete password from clipboard after: Enable this checkbox to have Password Depot automatically remove copied data from the clipboard after a specified time. Use the associated time field to set the desired duration in minutes and seconds. This function helps prevent passwords from staying in the clipboard by mistake. The smallest value you can enter is 10 seconds. The maximum value is 59 minutes and 59 seconds.

  • Hide clipboard changes from external viewers: This feature prevents external applications from detecting clipboard activity, providing an extra layer of protection for your sensitive data.

NOTE: Password Depot only recognizes particular clipboard viewers. Therefore, it does not replace a full-featured anti-spyware program. How to proceed if Password Depot detects a clipboard viewer is explained here.
