1 month ago If I uninstall via Software Manager, will the clipboard items be deleted?
I don't think so, if it is installed from the official distribution repository. The data are available in ~/.config/copyq and ~/.local/share/copyq - feel free to back them up.
But it might not be the case if the app is installed as Flatpak or AppImage (or whatever Ubuntu can use).
If I uninstall via Software Manager, then re-install via the terminal, will the items still be available? Is there a file somewhere that has those items?
If the app is installed from official distro repo again, all should work as before.
After restart, the copyq icon appears in the lower right hand corner, along with the printer, drives, network, sound, etc, icons
if I left click on it, it just disappears. If I right click on it, I get a list of 5 clipboard entries and some program options. If I then right click on one of those options, copyq disappears.
I have to restart to get the icon back. It won't start from the menu.
When I try terminal commands, I get “Command 'copyq' not found”
I don’t think I am going to be able to recover the items.
