Windows 10: How do I take a screenshot of only one display out of multiple displays with Snip & Sketch?

I have 3 displays 2 monitors + my laptop screen.
When I use the "Fullscreen Snip" option on Snip & Sketch, it captures a screenshot of ALL 3 displays.
I need to capture a screenshot of ONLY ONE. How do I choose which display to be captured?

Snip and Sketch Awkward

Use Windows+shift+s to launch Snip and Sketch. Can snip a screenshot.

Now the problem is this: after snipping the screen shot, it does not automatically appear in the Snip and Sketch app. So I open Snip and Sketch and there's nothing on it.

So I have choose 'new' and snip the screen yet again.

I recall using this once and taking a screenshot and voila! Snip and Sketch appeared with the screen shot duly in the app's workspace, ready for annotations and saving etc. This facility has disappeared. I have re-set it according to instructions, and even
reinstalled it - yet the problem persists.

Would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks

 

Opening Screenshots in Snipping Tool/Snip & Sketch

Hi,

I am Sumit, an Independent Advisor and a 2-Year Windows Insider MVP here to help.

The behavior you see is expected-Now taking screenshots would automatically copy them to the clipboard and would not open a new Window like happened with snipping tool.

A notification, should generate however to open the editor if needed. See the screenshot.

A better way would be to open Snip and Sketch app using app and select New Snip.
