Where did it go? I can't find it anywhere, even after uninstall and
reinstall. It supposed to be a windows component.

Thank you.

C:\windows\system32\clipbrd.exe

Or did you already look there?

Yes, I see it, but why isn't it under programs/accessories?
It's a windows component that can be installed and removed.

Thank you.

Why would the clipboard (which is pretty fundamental) be listed as a
component "accessory" to be installed or uninstalled? That makes little
sense.

You can add the shortcut to clipbrd.exe to your main menu quite
easily. I did so years ago by adding it to the category
accessories.

Well for sure. But I thought he was thinking it should be a windows
component that can be separately *installed* or *uninstalled* for the whole
system, which made little sense to me.

(Having that for something like Media Player makes sense, but for something
this fundamental to the operating system (since almost all apps need and use
it) - nah. :-)

It's only a viewer, that will show the clipboard contents. It isn't
necessary for the operation of the Windows clipboard. You can remove the
viewer if you want, most users don't even know that it is even available.
