Windows 10 Snipping Tool on Windows 7

All it is is one extra step beyond what is native to windows 10. Yes, technically it would be easier to have the functionality of print built in to the Windows 7 version, but you just have to save it ,and right click on it ,and print.

As far as getting the windows 10 version into windows7. I know there was a way to get the old winpaint, so maybe there's a way to get the snipping tool into 10, I don't know.

im curious if i could compress, and upload the application to this post? 7zip doesnt seem to be allowed

 

Change Snipping Tool save location on Windows 11 but not Screenshots

Hi

Welcome to Microsoft community.

Unfortunately, as of as I know, there is no direct way to change the default save location for the Snipping Tool without also affecting the Screenshots folder in Windows 11. The Snipping Tool and the Screenshot function share the same default save location.

However, there's a workaround you might find useful. After you've taken a snip using the Snipping Tool, rather than simply clicking the save button (floppy disk icon), you can choose "File" from the menu and then "Save As". This will allow you to select a specific location where you want to save the snip. If you always save your snips to the same location using this method, the Snipping Tool will remember the location and suggest it as the default place to save the next time you use "Save As".

Snip Tool won't save directly

My snip tool won't save snips at all unless I manually go into the snip tool and save it from there. I'm running Windows 11.

I have all of these enabled:

• Snipping tool notifications
  
• Use the Print screen button to open screen snipping
  
• Save Snips
  

I've created a new user profile, turned off and on all those various settings, updated my computer fully, and rebooted.

I talked with someone in tech support at length but he was stumped too since I have the "Save Snips" option enabled.
