After 33 years, it's time to take ClipMate off the market. For some very complicated reasons too involved to get into here, we're not ever going to be in a position to develop it further. In fact, it's been 10 years since the last update. By some miracle, it's still (mostly) working for many users. So we're not going to "pull the plug", but we're also not going to charge anything for it, going forward.
Because our biggest support burden these days is looking up replacement keys, and since we promised our accountant that we'd shut down by the end of 2023, we're just going to issue a set of free keys. We will NOT be looking up individual keys. Just use one of these. We hope that ClipMate continues to work for you. But understand, the day will eventually come when this software will no longer work on whatever Windows machine you're using. We hope that you reflect fondly on ClipMate, and all of the time that it saved you over the years.
Please feel free to use and share any of these keys. We will update our site soon to have these on the front page.
Here are the keys. The first one is good for 5 computers, and will show as a 5-user license.
The format is:
First line: Registered Name.
2nd Line: The Key.
If you lost your key and just want a replacment, this key is for you. Don't use yourown name, just use "Replacement Key" as the name, and then the 2nd line as the key.

The following are all 100-user keys, and are charity/karma themed. We hope that you consider doing something nice for someone if you use them. | ||

This has been a hard decision (I kept thinking I'd find the time for more updates!), but
it's final.
