Describe the bug
I've been trying to access older entries from clipboard with hs commands, but the terminal always return an error message telling me that I "might be lacking the permissions", and I couldn't seem to get the requested entry.

To Reproduce

~> cb cp 1
 ✔  Copied text "1"
~> cb cp b
 ✔  Copied text "b"
~> cb cp 3
 ✔  Copied text "3"
~> cb hs

Expected behavior
Access the older entries on the clipboard as advertised.

Version
I'm using cb 0.10.1 on Windows 11, installed with the default install script on the GitHub page.

The terminals I've tried include:

  • nushell 0.109.1
  • Windows powershell 7.4.13
  • cmd

all tested both with administrator permissions, both "run as administrator" in the menu and sudo command; I'm the administrator and the sole user of the system.
