Geek Tricks – Typing the contents of the clipboard

At work we are running Azure Pack which has this cool feature that you can connect directly to the Console from the web portal… it has one drawback though… you cannot paste into it 🙁 That is a problem if you have a VM with a very long password

I looked around a a little and found a handy tool called AutoHotKey which is made for creating keyboard Macros but it san also send the clipboard in raw format as keyboard input using this little script snippet

; win + v
#v::
  SendRaw %clipboard%
