I got rid of Cortana for security reasons but I just click "all apps" scroll down to "windows accessories" scroll down to "snipping tool". I would drag it to the task bar for future 1 click access. I was surprised by how much I use it.


If you use snipping tool (Win+Shift+S) while secondary display is connected to a laptop the snipping area does not cover both screens! The only thing that seems to 'resolve' this is setting both of your screens to 100% scale (bellow the recommended 125% on laptop monitor), which is not an option, because the second screen text then becomes too small to read.

Hi. If the snipping tool puts an image on the clipboard it should immediately be pastable into an Evernote note. I don't actually use it - I prefer the Evernote clipper Dave-in-Decatur mentioned. (In addition to what Dave said, if you hold the Shift key when clipping the snip will be saved to your desktop.)


With this update to Snipping Tool (version 11.2308.33.0), we are introducing Text Actions, which detects text in your captured screenshots, making it easy to copy text from any image to share with others or paste in another app. To get started, click the Text Actions button in the toolbar to show selectable text before selecting and copying text with your mouse. You can also click the Copy all text button in the toolbar or use Ctrl + A and Ctrl + C to select and copy all text using your keyboard.


With Text Actions, you can also redact sensitive information in screenshots before sharing. Select Quick Redact from the toolbar to automatically hide emails and phone numbers or select any text and select Redact Text from the right-click menu to hide the text.


Basically, for several reasons, in vista/windows 7 64-bit OS'es when a 32 bit application try to access to C:\Windows\System32\ it is automatically redirected to the folder called C:\Windows\SysWOW64\. Hence, you cannot start snippingtool.exe because it is not present in that folder.


But after realising most win11 machines had snipping tool (which they needed, I am still using older lappy on win10) as the scripts were deployed to win11 machines only, I reviewed the scripts and it did not have snipping tool in it, so snipping tool might had been a bundle of some kind.


The Snip & Sketch tool is easier to access, share and annotate screenshots than the old Snipping Tool. It can now capture a screenshot of a window on your desktop, a surprising omission when the app was first introduced that kept us on Team Snipping Tool until recently.


The easiest way to call up Snip & Sketch is with the keyboard shortcut Windows key + Shift + S. You can also find the Snip & Sketch tool listed in the alphabetical list of apps accessed from the Start button as well as in the notification panel where it's listed as Screen snip. Or you can just search for it if you don't commit the keyboard shortcut to memory. (If you're a frequent screenshot taker, we recommend pinning the app to the taskbar.)






To capture your entire screen, tap the Print Screen (sometimes labeled PrtScn) key. Your screenshot won't be saved as a file, but it will be copied to the clipboard. You'll need to open an image editing tool (such as Microsoft Paint), paste the screenshot into the editor and save the file from there.


You can also set the PrtScn button to open the Snip & Sketch tool by going to Settings > Ease of Access > Keyboard and toggling on Use the PrtScn button to open screen snipping under Print Screen Shortcut.


Hi, the Snipping Tool is the screenshot tool that has Windows in accesories since his version 7: -us/windows7/use-snipping-tool-to-capture-screen-shots



I want to use this to save an arbitrary part of the screen after a measurement process, I know there are some other ways to achieve this task but I want to use the Snipping Tool because is very flexible and this can capture any part of the screen and not only the front panel like the invoke node FP.GetImage, moreover I want to avoid extra processes like cutting the images, etc.



Thanks for your interest.


Don't know exactly what you mean, because I don't use any windows snipping tool.I use "Screenshot 3.36.0" (install package gnome-screenshot). Which I have bound to the "print-screen"-button.Which this you can copy the screen (or window) to the clipboard or save to file.
