Well, I dunno about that. It's pretty scary in MY home. My wife just shouted at me, apropos of nothing in particular: "What the heck are you sitting playing ruddy Fallout 4 for!? You've been playing it for 4 straight hours now! Why don't you get off your fat ugly backside and do something useful instead of wasting your time!" (To a chorus of "Yeah, Dad!" from my two kids. They just want me to get off the laptop so as they can use it. I've been hogging it all morning.)
So I went out for a walk in the deserted streets, crossing the road if I saw a human or a dog or a bat approaching.
It's a lovely day. Early autumn. Deciduous trees starting to come into their glorious reddish-brown shades on the tree-lined avenue where I live, just next door to the local abattoir - which is thankfully silent now.

 :)  You made my day, as I try to create a halfway good online training module, with the clock ticking ominously.

Hear Hear!!!!  :)

Regarding whether the behavior  of %ActiveWindowBrowserUrl% is dependent upon the browser being active or not, I did a small experiment. I copied your last post and pasted the results in my current post.

The template:
====================
%datetime%
%WindowTitle%
%Application%
%Notes.withprefix%
%ActiveWindowBrowserUrl%

%clip%
====================

results in:

%ActiveWindowBrowserUrl%

With the entire world is quarantined indoors, and it feeling very scary outside, at least we have our virtual homes and families!  :Thmbsup:

====================

So I guess, %ActiveWindowBrowserUrl%  simply is not active, even when I do not exit the browser. Not that it affects my purpose as %Notes.withprefix% is taking care of the URL.  8)

Hi Mouser,

After trying the alpha version on two identical windows 10 PCs I can confirm that every one of the following variables returned a valid value, except %ActiveWindowBrowserUrl%. The URL is however perfectly accessible via %Notes.withprefix%:

====================
%datetime%
%WindowTitle%
%Application%
%Notes.withprefix%
%ActiveWindowBrowserUrl%

%clip%
====================

I also did not find %ActiveWindowBrowserUrl% mentioned as an available variable in the quick paste options window. So probably, I have been trying somethings, which is anyhow not possible. :-)
