Windows 10: Screen snip Tool on my Windows 10 Prof 20H2 does not function

Please see screenshots below in order of execution. For some reason the defaultScreen snip tool is not working as expected ? I had to resort to using the olderSnipping Tool whenever I want to take screenshots & crop.


After highlighting/cropping the desktop area, then you normally see the popup notification that the screenshot is captured and you click on is to open it up, also that you see the thumbnail on the sidebar that slides in such as when open the action center from the notification icon on the right side on the taskbar. -None of this happens. Nothing happens as if the screenshot never happened.


Screenshot 1:




Screenshot 2: you are supposed to be able top open the cropped image after releasing the mouse button

Windows 10 Snipping Tool on Windows 7

All it is is one extra step beyond what is native to windows 10. Yes, technically it would be easier to have the functionality of print built in to the Windows 7 version, but you just have to save it ,and right click on it ,and print.

As far as getting the windows 10 version into windows7. I know there was a way to get the old winpaint, so maybe there's a way to get the snipping tool into 10, I don't know.

im curious if i could compress, and upload the application to this post? 7zip doesnt seem to be allowed

It's basically a super-powered Screen Shot tool. Lets you take screen shots of specific areas on your screen, either in a rectangular shape, or in free form "draw to outline" type shapes. Useful for setting up directions for some of my older clients, so they have a picture to go with the "Click the blue scan button" text *Smile . Anything past Vista has it, but the 10 version added the ability to print directly from the program, as well as a "Delay" function, so you can do things like bring up menus or use hotkeys, and then screen shot that.
