Windows 10: Can't 'save as' snips

I cannot get my snipping tool to let me save as and snips.


When I exit it asks if I want to save changes, but I cannot find the files as there's no indication of where they're going or what they're called.


I've tried the recommended solutions about repairing corrupted installation files to no avail.


Any other ideas?

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.

Snipping tool - change default back to save as jpg.

On a new computer with Windows 10, the snipping tool's default is to save as a png file. I save all my snips as jpg files. It is a pain to have to change each one I save. Is there a way to change the default to save as jpg. I have looked to try to
change the default settings, but snipping tool is not on that list.
