- The History Tool and the Paste mode are two different components and there clips are independent of each other.
History Tool is meant for history-keeping whereas Ctrl+V Paste mode is meant to show clips contained in different channels of Clipjump. The record of all clips added to any of the channels are shown in a single window i.e.History Tool. On the other hand, clips stored in channels can be managed from the Channel Organizer. - This is a limitation of the Hotkey control that is used. You can use the ClipjumpCustom.ini along with the right
Label to create a custom shortcut for yourself.

It contains folders with channel numbers that stores clips for that channel. eg > (clips for channel 0) , (clips1 for channel 1) and so on.
If you look to backup selected channels, you can copy and store clips[n], thumbs[n] and fixate[n] directory for it though it is usually recommended to stay away from the cache directory. - See Here

- No. The History Tool in Clipjump is meant to keep track of all the clips that were copied to Clipjump with their timestamps.
If you are looking to free History disk consumption, try sorting the Window with the 'Size' column. - This happens because the zip file contents have temporary paths . C:/file.zip/some.txt refers to no browsable location and and so Clipjump is not able to show the contents.
