Microsoft has added a “Paste Text Only” keyboard shortcut to Word that allows users to paste plain text, which is available for Windows and Mac.
You may be familiar with this keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + V (Cmd + Shift + V on Mac) – it’s also called “keep text only” or “paste plain text” – because of its popularity in other applications like Microsoft Teams, Word for the web, Google, and Gmail. Whatever you call it, the Paste Text Only shortcut is now available in Word for Windows and Word Mac,” Microsoft said in a blog post.
To check how this shortcut works, users must select a range of text from their current document or another document, and then place the cursor in their Word document where they want the text to appear.
After that, press Ctrl + Shift + V (Cmd + Shift + V on Mac) – users will now notice how the pasted content matches the adjacent text formatting, rather than keeping the original font size, color, etc.
Meanwhile, Microsoft has announced that it is testing an improved volume mixer in Quick Settings for Windows 11 that will allow users to quickly adjust audio.
This new feature is rolling out to the latest “Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 25309 to the Dev Channel,” according to the tech giant.
