Hey @Minlor, Thanks for this — you were right that the description was hiding a fairly important consequence. The catalog file it touches has been reorganised since, so the patch won't apply cleanly any more, but your point is in: the description now names clipboard history alongside the emoji panel, voice typing and handwriting, and the Disabled option carries a warning. The setting has also been dropped from the recommended profile entirely, so it isn't applied unless someone picks it deliberately. Closing this as the substance has landed — it'll be available for testing in Release 28. Credited on #734. Drafted and approved by @memstechtips - Sent by Memory's Agent |

Description
Updates the Touch Keyboard and Handwriting Panel Service description to explicitly state that disabling the service also disables Windows clipboard history (
Win+V).The previous wording described the setting as safe on desktop systems without touch, pen, or gamepad hardware. That could mislead desktop users who rely on clipboard history, so the description now lists clipboard history with the other affected Windows Input Experience features.
Both the catalog fallback text and the English UI localization are updated so the warning is visible in the application.
Type of Change
Related Issues
Follow-up to #374 and #590.
Testing Performed
Validation performed:
dotnet build src/Winhance.Core/Winhance.Core.csproj --configuration Release --no-restorepasses with zero warnings.en.json.Windows clipboard history (Win+V).git diff --checkpasses.The localization integration-test project could not be compiled locally because the machine does not have the Windows 10 UAP SDK
10.0.19041.0Platform.xml required by the unrelated WinGet interop project.Screenshots/Videos
Not applicable; this is a text-only clarification.
Checklist
Additional Notes
An earlier source-only wording change for #590 did not update the localized UI string. This change keeps the catalog fallback and the displayed English localization in sync.
