    I had my last laptop for five years, and I used the snipping tool regularly. I like to use it if i'm watching a video and see a snippet i think is funny so i can just quickly capture it and copy it into my chat and send it to my friends. I also used it for work a fair amount too. And the recordings I got on my laptop always looked fine. They looked normal. Pretty much how things actually looked on my screen. But I got a new PC recently. It's custom built with an ASUS prime geforce RTX graphics card so that definitely cannot be the problem. I tried to get a screen recording for work and the f

  3. snipping tool

    Please try this:

    Step 1:

    Click Start, and type Snipping Tool.

    Right-click Snipping Tool from the search results, and click App Settings

    Click Reset,

    Click Repair.

    Note: In Windows 11, there is no Snip and Sketch. It comes pre-installed with the new Snipping Tool (which replaces the old Snipping Tool and Snip & Sketch apps)

    Turn off Focus assist if it's enabled

    Snipping tool does not have recorder

    I got new laptop, it is Windows11 and looked for screen recorder. As many free software work but comes with watermark.

    So I looked recorder for Windows11. According to Microsoft post here Snipping Tool and Xbox Game Box will do for free.

    But for me there is no recorder in Snipping Tool. I even looked for updates, possible I got older version but the app store has nothing mentioned about the recorder in Snipping Tool.

    Finally I got Edge Extension for the same. I think it is not good practice for using many software for same task. Recording screen should be included in Snipping Tool.

    Or I am making any mistake?
