Windows 10: Snipping Tool "Something Went Wrong"

I was in the middle of using the Snipping tool on an up to date windows 11 system. Now, while I can snip and save the image, I can no longer open any images with the tool. I get the error Snipping Tool Something Went Wrong.I have repaired, reset, uninstalled, reinstalled to no avail.Any help would be appreciated.Thanks

:)

Please try this:

Step 1:

Click Start, and type Snipping Tool.

Right-click Snipping Tool from the search results, and click App Settings

Click Reset,

Click Repair.

Note: In Windows 11, there is no Snip and Sketch. It comes pre-installed with the new Snipping Tool (which replaces the old Snipping Tool and Snip & Sketch apps)

Step 2:

Turn off Focus assist if it's enabled

Step 3:

Open Services.msc and make sure that the following services are set to "Automatic" and running:

• Windows Push Notifications System Service
  
• Windows Push Notifications User Service
