Windows 10: Request for a reg file to add snipping tool new snip to context menu

So ive been able to find a means to add the snipping tool itself to my context menu.

Ive also been able to find a means to add a snipping tool entry with cascading menu to my start menu.

I'm looking specifically for a means to add the snipping tool to context menu (with its icon ofc) and when clicking on it, it goes straight to the new snip option so im ready to capture straight away.

is this possible?

:)

 

Windows 10 snipping tool

Search for the Snipping Tool with Cortana. When the search result appears, right-click on the icon and choose Pin to taskbar from the context menu.

 

How can I snip something that disappears as soon as I click elsewhere?

From here:

Can I capture a snip of a menu, such as a shortcut menu or the Start menu?

Yes. Here's how:

• 
  Open Snipping Tool by clicking the Start button
  
  . In the search box, type Snipping
  Tool, and then, in the list of results, click Snipping Tool.
  
• 
  Press Esc, and then open the menu that you want to capture.
  
• 
  Press Ctrl+PrtScn.
  
• 
  Click the arrow next to the New button, select Free-form Snip, Rectangular Snip, Window Snip, or Full-screen
  Snipfrom the list, and then select the area of your screen that you want to capture.
  

Alternatively,you can also use the delay option-It would also work.

 

You can copy and paste the following code to NotePad, save it as a .reg file then run it.
It will invoke an immediate 'Ready to Snip' task, from any Directory, to the Clipboard, ready to paste and save in in eg. Paint:


Code: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\SnippingTool] "MUIVerb"="Snip to Clipboard" "Icon"="SnippingTool.exe" "Position"="Bottom" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\SnippingTool\command] @="SnippingTool.exe /clip"[/quote]

 

If you would like the entry to be at the top of your context menu, change "Position" to "Top"...

 

thank you very much! Exactly what i was hoping for *Smile

before i add this, do you mind explaining what i need to do to make one to remove it so i can toggle it on/off should the need arise?

(i like to save all these reg files for future use and other pc's etc)

 

Create another .reg file for Removal:

Code: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\SnippingTool][/quote]
