#MICROSOFT WORD SHORTCUT PASTE WITHOUT FORMATTING WINDOWS#
The steps to do this are as follows: Launch Clipboard on Windows 11 by pressing Win + V keys. This takes the copied text and pastes it in using the current document's formatting.

This (theoretically) will apply the shortcut across the board. Select All Applications for Application input box.

You would always prefer to remove any traces of the original format and follow the format of the target document. It’s effectively the same as the Format Painter, but now you don’t need to take your hands away.
This rule also holds true for something we do every day on the computer: copying and pasting text snippets from one apps to another. If you take an everyday chore and shave a few seconds off, you'll earn a lifetime of extra productivity.
