  1. Why is the snipping tool too sensitive?


    For the past 3-4 months, my snipping tool became oversensitive and does not work. Based on research, It seems to be an issue w Windows 10.


    I am using a Bluetooth Logitech 557 mouse


    I went into mouse settings to adjust the double click speed and the pointer speed, still it will not work.

    I have tried a number of ways to fix it with no luck.


    What is the fix?

    :)

  3. Why is the Snipping Tool not in the Windows Applications Menu ?

    Now for three questions;

    1) What happened to the "All apps" menu ? (which listed
    ever
    installed and launch-able application).

    In my Windows 10, there are the ugly tiles on the right, and then to the left of the tiles, there is an alphabetical list of applications, but sadly, no Snipping tool is listed, which indicates that this is not a full list of available applications. So how
    can I (or others) find out what applications exist and are available to run?

    2) Why is the Snipping Tool not in the Windows Applications Menu ?

    3) What other applications exist in Windows 10 ? (but no one would know because they don't appear in any menu).

    It is not that I needed to use Snipping Tool, but I asked a friend to use the Snipping Tool to email me a picture of an error message, and they were unable to find the Snipping Tool. So I asked them to display the menu and then just start typing "sni..."
    and it should appear in the list of applications that start with "sni".

    Designers of Windows 10, please consider people who are not computer experts, and design Windows 10 so that users can visually see things in order to know that they exist. So please stop hiding things from view. Minimalism should be an option, not forced
    on people.

    By the way, when creating this forum question, under "Windows topics", I did not notice a "Windows Applications" selection.
