About ClipTyper

ClipTyper is a lightweight Windows tray app that types the clipboard as real keystrokes into the active window. It is made for places where Ctrl+V does not work: VMware vSphere and VMRC, Proxmox noVNC, Hyper-V, Dell iDRAC, HPE iLO, KVM-over-IP, RDP sessions with clipboard redirection disabled, and paste-blocked password fields.
Trigger it with a hotkey (Ctrl + Alt + V by default) or with a floating overlay button for fullscreen sessions. Key-press mode can use the keyboard layout of the remote console, so passwords come out right on a US console typed from a German PC.
Also included: credential auto-type, light and dark mode, no administrator rights and no telemetry.
