    Snipping tool bug - does not save a snip 1st time


    I have a Pro 64-bit (10.0, Build 17134)


    1. Open a snipping tool

    2. Click on a new snip (have a rectangular snip mode set)

    3. Take a snip and press save (black floppy disk)

    4. Choose a location, name a snip and press save


    Current result: Snip will not be saved, only if you press save (black floppy disk) again and then press save - it will ask you whether you want to overwrite it - if you choose yes, only then the snippet will be created in a given location.


    Expected result:

    Snip will be saved in a current location directly after step 4.


    Please, Microsoft, fix this bug, I am actually using your snipping tool for work, and this drives me crazy!

    This bug is here for quite some time and it haven´t been fixed.


    Apologies, if this is not a proper forum for bug report, but this is the only one I know.

    :)

    You can.

    Simply change the 'Save as type' selection when you save your snip.

    The Snipping Tool remembers which type you used last and suggests this type for your next snip.

    Your post is unclear. Please post a step-by-step description of what you are doing, e.g. like so:

    • Open the snipping tool
    • Click "New"
    • etc.

  4. Snipping tool bug - does not save a snip 1st time

    I cannot save the snips from the snipping tool

    Original Title: Snipping Tool

    I use the snipping tool frequently. Suddenly I cannot save the snips. When I click save as nothing happens. If I then close the snip I get the option to save but where does it go? The option to send to e-mail works but this is very inconvenient. Have tried
    system restore.
