    How do I save snip screenshots as .JPG?

    Hi,





    You can save a screenshot directly as a .jpeg file in the Snipping tool. You can do that by following these steps:


    • Press File.

    • Select Save As....

    • Choose a File name.

    • Select the drop-down besides Save as type.

    • Select JPEG file.

    • Press Save.



    Let us know how it goes.



    Regards.
