Windows 10: Inconsistent snipping tool window location after opening the program

I really like the Snipping Tool on Windows, I keep it pinned to the taskbar.Lately, when opening the program, the window location immediately after opening the program is inconsistent.Sometimes the app is in the middle of the screen, and sometimes it is half cut off by the top edge of the screen, and the tools/buttons and the title bar are not accessible, meaning I can't drag the window down into the middle of the screen.How do I prevent this from happening, please?Thanks.

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
