Windows 10: Unable to record screen using Snipping Tool.

When attempting to start a screen recording using the Snipping Tool, the recording process halts abruptly. An error message is displayed, stating: "Recording stopped. Something happened and we have stopped recording." ImageThis issue occurs every time I try to initiate a screen recording, making it impossible to capture and save any screen activity. It disrupts my workflow and prevents me from using the Snipping Tool's recording functionality as intended.

Can't screen record with snipping tool.

When I try to screen record with the snipping tool, it loads for a couple of seconds and then denies me. Any suggestions?

Snipping Tool is missing from Windows 10

If you click on the Windows Start logo (bottom left on the screen) you will get a list come up.

You should find 'Snipping Tool' between 'Remote Desktop Connection' and 'Steps Recorder'.
