    Usually when you take a screenshot with snipping tool, the snipping tool window becomes the active window and displays the new image. Currently after a snipping screenshot, I have to go find the screenshot because it does not come to the front. How can I have this come to the front again?

    How to make Snipping Tool in Windows 10 start taking a screenshot by clicking its icon in taskbar?

    I simply want to make it start taking a screenshot right after clicking its icon in the Taskbar. Unfortunatelly, now the situation is different. This how it works now:

    BAD VARIANT

    1. click the icon in the Taskbar.
    2. Click New. - I want to remove this step.
    3. Select the area.
    4. Save.

    BUT, Here is what I want:

    GOOD VARIANT

    1. click the icon in Taskbar.
    2. Select the area.
    3. Save.

    ___In other words, I want to remove one step - clicking New which is step 2 in the Bad Variant.
    I want to start taking a screenshot right after clicking the icon in the Taskbar.

    Please, help me with the GOOD VARIANT.

    • P.S. Some years ago I found the solution for my older version of Windows (that was either Windows 7 or XP; I don't remember), but I cannot find it now.
    • P.S.S. Let me explain my scenario again: 1) click ICON 2) start choosing the area 3) The resulting snip gets opened in the same Snipping Tool (or similar soft, OK, I am tired of waiting for Microsoft's mercy). ALL IN ONE APP. I really don't want to press any buttons on keyboards, or make any other movent with my finger. I am not being arrogant; I just need to be fast at work.
