Windows 10 paste timestamp anywhere

Question

I´d like to have a shortcut to place a timestamp at any program that I use in Windows 10. I didn't found any native resource for that.

I wonder if I could write some macro or script or some basic function that returns a timestamp, invoked by a shortcut, regardless of the current task that I´m working.

Answer 1

You can do it with powershell. Create a shortcut with this command line:

powershell.exe -c "Get-Date | Set-Clipboard"

Each time you start the shortcut, the clipboard will get a new timestamp.
