# ClickPaste

Windows 10/11 notification area app in C# that can paste clipboard contents as keystrokes to whatever location you click.

## Starting

* Launch ClickPaste.exe, or put it in your Startup folder.

* If you intend to paste onto windows of UAC-elevated processes, you need ClickPaste.exe to be running UAC-elevated as well.  You can do this by making a shortcut and setting its properties to "Run as Administrator"

## Usage

First of course, you need to have some text in your clipboard.  Then:

1. Click the target notification icon to begin:

2. Click to choose a location you want to paste the text:

3. Your clipboard contents should be typed as keystrokes onto the window you selected:

## Settings

Right-click the notification icon and select Settings.

* You can change between key typing modes, 

* Set how much delay there is between keystrokes, 

* Configure what "hot key" combination will invoke the target selector to pick a paste location. Clear the key textbox with delete or backspace if you wish to have *no* hotkey.
