  1. Snip & Sketch Not Working


    I am a fan of Snip & Sketch, I have been using it since it was out, I immediately ditched the Snipping Tool.

    Recently, when I am trying to use it, it wouldn't do anything. When I take a screenshot, all it does is show a loading cursor and that's it. It ends right there. So Snip & Sketch sends notifications when you took a screenshot successfully, but mine doesn't anymore. When I check my notifications, I don't see anything. I have also tried to paste it already somewhere since it used to just copy the screenshot onto the clipboard right away, but it doesn't this time.

    In the video below, I made sure my Notifications are cleared first, then copied the word Snipping tool.

    After that, I tried to use Snip & Sketch. Now usually, when I am done, it shows a notification and actually goes to the notifications so I can edit it or save it. But it didn't show up there at all.

    I have also tried to paste to Word, but still the word Snipping tool is still what's on the clipboard.

  2. Snip and Sketch Awkward

    Use Windows+shift+s to launch Snip and Sketch. Can snip a screenshot.

    Now the problem is this: after snipping the screen shot, it does not automatically appear in the Snip and Sketch app. So I open Snip and Sketch and there's nothing on it.

    So I have choose 'new' and snip the screen yet again.

    I recall using this once and taking a screenshot and voila! Snip and Sketch appeared with the screen shot duly in the app's workspace, ready for annotations and saving etc. This facility has disappeared. I have re-set it according to instructions, and even
    reinstalled it - yet the problem persists.

    Would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks

    Snip & Sketch Not Working

    Snip & Sketch

    It's the Snipping Tool that's being phased out, not Snip & Sketch. FWIW, I just used the latter tool and was able to paste the snip into a Word (Office 365) document. There was a point in the past when for reasons unknown, opening Word would clear the
    clipboard. If you're using an older version, you might want to try opening the document first, before taking a screenshot.

    If you prefer to use Snipping Tool, all you have to do (as I suggested earlier) is open the Start Menu and type snip.
