Screen snip not displaying snips

hi,

I'm using Win10 Enterprise LTSC, I have been using Screen snip and it works well, but today when I take a snip the snip is not displayed, I've tried rebooting but this didn't make any difference, I checked Apps and Features and screen snip is not listed in it. The steps I took are: Click on Action Centre, select Screen snip, the screen snip icon appears on the top of the screen, screen goes grey and cursor turns into a crosshair, I select the area for the snip but nothing happens, the screen snip application should launch but it doesn't. Any ideas how to fix this?

Seemingly cannot uninstall or disable the Snipping Tool (Windows 11)

Hello smart people! I have an issue where I cannot for the life of me disable the Snipping Tool. I want to be able to use Snagit 2023 with the PrtScrn button but no matter WHAT the snipping tool comes up. I am on the latest build of Windows 11 Pro (22621.1413). I have done all of the suggested things to disable it.

1. Turn off "Use the print screen key" to open screen snipping under Settings -> Accessibility ->Keyboard
3. Add 32-bit Dword called "PrintScreenKeyForSnippingEnabled" to registry under "Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Keyboard"
4. "Do not Allow Snipping Tool To Run" set to Enabled using Group Policy (GPEDIT.MSC) and going to User Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Tablet PC -> Accessories
5. Uninstall Snipping Tool

And I rebooted the computer after each step above just for good measure. I know it sounds jerky when people say this, but I'm a computer/software/networking professional and been doing this since MS-DOS 3.1 so I'm sure I have done this correctly and I would think that one of the options would do the trick, and I've done all 4. If I had hair I'd be pulling my hair out. Perhaps my Google search skills aren't what they used to be. SO I can only think that this tool that is coming up when I press Print Screen is another built-in tool that is not the Snipping Tool. I have attached a screenshot of what comes up when I press PrtScn. It's the 4 options of selecting rectangular area, free drawing area, active window and then fullscreen mode.

Please try this:

Step 1:

Click Start, and type Snipping Tool.

Right-click Snipping Tool from the search results, and click App Settings

Click Reset,

Click Repair.

Note: In Windows 11, there is no Snip and Sketch. It comes pre-installed with the new Snipping Tool (which replaces the old Snipping Tool and Snip & Sketch apps)

Step 2:

Turn off Focus assist if it's enabled

Step 3:

Open Services.msc and make sure that the following services are set to "Automatic" and running:

• Windows Push Notifications System Service
  
• Windows Push Notifications User Service
