Where is the exact location of clipboard folder in Windows 7? In XP I could find the clipbrd.exe but whereas clipbrd.exe was a command line tool in windows 7
Is there any way to open the clipboard in Windows 7 and other updated versions?
P.S : Installing third party tools was restricted at my machine so any other built-in way to deal with this?
Answer
AFAICT clipbrd.exe has been removed beyond XP, and there isn't a replacement Windows tool to view the clipboard.
However, if you still have an XP installation kicking around somewhere copying over the executable has apparently been "known to work"1:
You can try to copy it from a Windows XP installation, if you have access to it, and paste it in your System32 folder. In most cases this is known to work.
Edit: Per testing, this works in Windows 7 (and Windows 8.1, incidentally).
Otherwise, there are several third-party clipboard viewers; including one offered (and several alternatives noted) by the above link.
