Windows 10: Why can the snipping tool no longer save images?

I want to take a picture of a part of my screen and save this picture to a file.Why is this no longer possible?I press 'print screen', the snipping tool UI opens and works, but then.... there's no dialogue box or any response after I've taken the snip. I know that the snip goes in my clipboard, because if I open paint and paste, it appears there. But there's no button to save the image I just snipped to a file?

Snipping Tool has various options on how you can capture images in your computer. To change it to normal snipping, follow the steps below:

• Press Windows + S to open Search Box.
• Type Snipping Tool, then click it.
• Click New.
• Click the drop-down menu in New.
• Select Rectangular Snip.

Let us know if this works for you.

 

Windows 10 snipping tool no longer saves

Recently, my Windows 10 snipping tool has stopped saving files. I can do everything in the snipping tool except save or "save as". I don't know when this started, but it's been within the last month. When I snip something and choose "save as", no window
comes up prompting me for a save location. If I snip something and just try to close the tool I'm prompted on whether or not I want to save and even clicking on "Yes" just exits the tool with no save.

If anyone has any ideas, I'd like to know.

Can't save or paste an image with the new Snip & Sketch tool

Hi, CyberGolemn I'm Yanecsy and I'm an independent advisor.

I'm here to help you.

To use the snipping tool you must,

Select the Start button, then in the search box on the taskbar, type snippets and select Snipping Tool from the list of results.

Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, tap Search (or if you're using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, and then select Search), type snipping tool in the box. Search and select Snipping Tool from the list
of results.

After capturing a snip, select the Save Snip button.

In the Save As dialog box, enter a file name, location, and file type, and then select Save.

Regards.
