    I frequently use the Snipping Tool during online webinars to earn professional development hours for maintaining my Landscape Architect license. At the end of each webinar, we take a test, and I use the clips I create to review the slides for answers. However, I’ve run into a problem: When I use the Snipping Tool to capture each slide, the window always pops up in front of the PowerPoint presentation.

    Unable to mail the snipped clip from Snipping tool option on Windows 10.

    Hello Jensheahan,



    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. We regret the inconvenience caused and will assist you in resolving the issue.



    Before assisting further, I would like to ask you few questions:

    • Which mail application are you using on the computer?
    • Which is the default mail application set on the computer?
    • Is any mail client installed on the computer other than Mail app?


    You will be able to select the mail application to send using Snipping tool by setting a default mail application on the computer.



    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if you are able to mail the snipped clip.



    • Press Windows logo key on the keyboard, type Windows Live Mail and select the top most search result.
    • From the dialog box select the application to set as default and follow the on-screen instructions.
    • Open snipping tool, snip a clip and check if you are able to mail the clip using
      Windows Live Mail.


    Write to us with the answers to the above questions and the status of the issue on the same post for further assistance. Your reply is most important for us to ensure we assist you accordingly.



    Thank you.
