Do you mean that you are right-clicking on a clip and then choosing to paste using the template (can you try that and see if it works?)

Hi Mouser,
This is exactly what I am doing. choosing a clip by right clicking and then pasting it using the template.

Hi Mouser,
I re-downloaded the Alpha version some 5 minutes back and tried quick pasting again. It seems to be working.
Will give it a try tomorrow on this and another PC and post back the results. Thanks for following through so quickly and tenaciously.
Regards,
m
mouser:
I'm guessing your problem may only show up when a clip has multiple formats (unicode, etc.); so keep experimenting; it's very likely the problem is still there and just needs the right combination of factors -- when you figure it out let me know so I can fix it.

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. :-)
mouser:
Ah I think I understand the problem.
In the database, as you have noticed, the url is store in the Notes/Decription field.
The %ActiveWindowBrowserUrl% variable is actually being cleared I think when you go to paste into a new app.
So I think the solution is just to use the Notes field, no?
EDIT:
So I guess maybe what you're saying is in the template I need to remove the %ActiveWindowUrl% field and make clear to use %Notes% for the url in web captures.
