Windows 10: Skip and Sketch not working properly

Hello,

I used to be able to take a screenshot with Snip and Sketch and have the screenshot show as a thumbnail in the bottom right corner of the screen, which I could then click on to save it to my files. Recently, however, this thumbnail has not been appearing after I take a screenshot with it. Is there a way to fix this? I can use Snipping Tool, but it is rather inefficient compared to Snip and Sketch.

Thanks for the help!

Windows 10 screenshot tool (snip&sketch) not working

Hey John, thank you for your help.

I'm using Windows 10 Pro 2004 version and I have already tried everything you stated and none worked. It was working fine until last week then it suddenly stopped working and I did not make any changes recently.
