Windows 10: How do I uninstall snip on my new Win11 laptop

I have a new laptop with Win11 Pro installed. I also noticed that I have the Snip app installed. I normally use SnagIt to capture screen images but I thought that I'd give Snip a try. After about 30 minutes I determined that Snip was NOT the application for me. I installed SnagIt and assigned the PrtSc key as the trigger key for SnagIt. When I pressed the PrtSc it still invoked Snip. I performed a Google search for removing or disabling Snip. I used GPEDIT, REGEDIT, Uninstall, and whatever else I could find in the postings and on YouTube. After all of these efforts Snip somehow remains active

Snip & Sketch - saving to Desktop sometimes works and sometimes does Not work (Win11)

On Win11 Snip & Sketch sometimes copies from the clipboard to the desktop and sometimes does Not

copy to the Desktop. The failed copies are listed in the recent action list, but when accessed Win11 gives

the error that "file has been moved"....

So I went into Settings to check that "Autocopy to Clipboard" was On

I noticed that there was also a setting for "Save Snips" which gives a confirmation

box when doing a save - so I set this to On

Somehow confirming the save seems to have fixed the problem, adding a step is a drag, but

at least now snip & sketch has been working every time
