Windows 10: How do I get rid of the red box around my snapshot in the snipping tool?

Every time I use the snipping tool, it keeps the "selection box" as part of the image. How can I remove the red "selection box" from my snapshot?

Snipping Tool - White Turns Pink in Snapshots

Just overnight, my snapshots using the snipping tool become pink.

It also happens to people I share my screen with on Skype. White or background becomes pink.

Very annoying and snapshot functionality has become useless.

Anyone with a solution?

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)

Step 2:

Turn off Focus assist if it's enabled

Step 3:

Open Services.msc and make sure that the following services are set to "Automatic" and running:

• Windows Push Notifications System Service
  
• Windows Push Notifications User Service
