    What happened to snippet and winzip


    I had some issues with updating some days ago and had to reset my computer. Everything is fine except I have no winzip and no snippet after the reset.

    I use both of these a lot and I believe that they are (or should be) included in Windows 10.

    Are they on my system and I just cannot find them or are hey just plain gone?

    If they are gone then where can I download them to install them again.

    I need to them badly and after the reset they cannot be found.

    Respectfully,



    :)

  2. How to run .application file?

    What happens when you try to unzip the file, run the .exe Application file? It appears WinZip didn't Uninstall. Did you double-check in Settings>Apps?

  3. Snippet Tool + Recycle Bin

    Snippet Tool: I found it in my new machine loaded with Windows 10. The Snippet does what it is supposed to however when sending an email either with the snippet as an attachment or copied to the email; the email is lost in "cyberspace" & never shows up

    I deleted Snippet on a suggestion from "Microsoft Community" but now can't find the Microsoft Snippet Tool download. I've seen plenty "knockoffs" but want the Microsoft version.

    Recycle Bin: I cannot find it anywhere. I tried to load the icon to my tray, (I do know how) but it never showed up nor is it in the list of programmes. I don't believe it is loaded.

    This is a new HP machine (ordered from HP) with Windows 10 so what's up?

    WinZip is not part of windows....although windows does have it's on "Zip" application. What happens if you type in snippet into windows search bar?

    RE : no snippet
    Windows 10 has Snipping Tool included in the operating system.
    You can find it by......
    Start button > left side, scroll down to alphabet W, click open Windows accessories > Snipping Tool is there.

    RE : no winzip
    7 zip is widely used and recommended. It is free.
    I use that since the Windows 7 days.
    7-Zip
    Make sure you select the correct bit-version.

    In my Windows Accessories there is only 3D Builder. There is no Snippet.

    What do I do now?

    I have the snipping tool in my version of windows 10 pro. In your link for features that will be deprecated or removed, the snippet tool is not listed. I also don't think it's just a tablet function either as I have it.

    Is this an actual upgrade from within windows update? Is this an OEM or custom build? Can you list your complete system specs?

    The reason I ask is; it might be beneficial to do a clean install using the MCT from MS.

    This is a reset. I hadsome trouble in installing Windows 10 updates. The software recommended a reset.

    I agreed.

    It saved my files, but it apparently did not save the snippet, which is part of Windows 10 Pro.

    I just cannot find it.

    I am afraid to do a separate install just for snippet because it may not be the appropriate version.

    Where else would I look for it?

    Thanks in advance.

    @Lou Reed

    WinZip is a third-party tool, not a part of Windows. All third party tools are removed by a Reset of Windows. You can reinstall it, try 7-Zip instead, or use Windows' own built-in zip function (right-click on a file, folder or selection of files/folders and 'Send to > Compressed (zipped) folder').

    The name Snippet is confusing some of your readers, do you mean a tool for capturing screenshots? If so, the Windows 10 built-in tool is named 'Snipping Tool'.

    If you mean 'Snippets' which is a tool that "...helps you to organize and re-use code snippets in different projects, share snippets publicly and in with team, available for Mac and Windows..." then that too is third-party software and would have been uninstalled. Download and reinstall it.

    I mean the Snipping tool. After I reset the Windows and then started to build everything (software) back up I noticed it was not there anymore. I looked at the list of removed apps that is always created when you perform a reset and it says that it was not removed. It is not in the list of removed software. So I guess according to Windows 10 reset it is still there. I just do not see it.

    Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.
