    Prevent Win+Shift+R from opening Snipping Tool record

    Win+Shift+R is the PowerPoint shortcut to pause/resume recording while recording your screen. Recently it started opening Snipping Tool record. This means that when recording screen with PowerPoint, instead of pausing recording it just opens Snipping Tool and your PowerPoint recording keeps on recording.

    I have Googled and no one appears to have this problem. I have repaired and reset Snipping Tool. Is there any way to disable the Win+Shift+R shortcut in snipping tool?

  3. Snipping Tool is missing from Windows 10

    If you click on the Windows Start logo (bottom left on the screen) you will get a list come up.

    Scroll down to 'Windows Accessories' click on the drop down listing (v).

    You should find 'Snipping Tool' between 'Remote Desktop Connection' and 'Steps Recorder'.
