  • HP Envy 5530: HP Envy 5530 truncates (chops) image of Snip and Snipping Tool Windows 10, Word 2007

    Hello. My HP Envy 5530 newly purchased printer truncates images captured from Snip, Snipping Tool and screen printing. Image appears perfectly when placed in MS Word, PowerPoint, MS-Paint, etc., however, when printing on the 5530 want appears the image enlarged, as well as 30% or more of the image gets truncated or cut off.  I have tried other "resolutions" posted, but they do not work. I wasn't able to find a driver for the HP 9800, as suggested in another post (HP says it is not available). Everything worked before installing this HP 5530 (I used Lexmark printer). I am on Windows (to date) 10 MS Office 2007 and reinstalled Snip & Snipping Tool. I uninstalled and reinstalled the HP 5530 and I ran the Scan Doctor utility that will return no error found. Does anyone have a similar problem and especially a solution?

    @PoloChrome

    With no idea what you have tried (other "resolutions"), I offer the following to your attention:

    • Ensure your PDF viewer / reader software is on the latest version available for your operating system.  This is not negligible.  Create a Restore Point before the update / modify the software system yiour.
    • Never use copy - paste when you add images to your document (Word) > use Insert
    • Control image format when you change the size of the inserted picture
    • Consider "line spacing" when you insert a picture into the document using "tight" / options "Wrap Text".
    • Keep the image within the borders of the minimum margin - if all else fails, change the margins in "Close" to give more images of space
    • Consider that Office Word 2007 cannot respond to Windows 10 as expected
    • Make sure that you allow updates include patches Office 2007 available (assuming these are available)

  • Where can I download the Snipping Tool? I forgot to do my OEM Vista Home Premium...

    I googled the elusive Snipping Tool, saw a lot of screen shots where and how to locate using Vista Home Premium... He should have flown the coop.
    I'm on a new Toshiba Satellite, AMDx64dualCoreblahblahblah...
    I ran widows update several times in the 3 weeks I had this thing... because some patches are required to be missing or something...
    My 8 year running original OEM XP Dell sweeps the new Toshiba and Vista...
    Suggestions? I just need the screen shot. I prefer not to go by hack Adobe or something just to fill the void left by Vista... and hurtling to Fry is not possible at this time...

    Hello RG Brewster; THE ANTIVISTA

    Thank you for your message.  Click on the "Start Orb" and in the search box, type "Capture", give it a few seconds and the tool must complete programmatic.  And then double-click the tool.

    Let us know if it did or did not work for you.  We can't wait to hear back on your part.

  • Print screen with Snipping Tool does not.

    Print screen or capture tool work.  They worked very well in the past, but now neither one works.  Back to zero does not solve the problem.

    Screenshot doesn't seem to do anything in the copy buffer because even if the block occurs, nothing sticks in.

    Snipping Tool just shows a black with a red around him border screen, instead of the actual screen shot (no matter the option I select IE free Style or whole screen, etc.), I have Vista Home Premium with all service packs.

    Thank you

    This should be the final resolution to my problem of Snipping Tool/print screen:

    1. I downloaded and ran the Malwarebytes program as recommended.  And BTW, I don't see this recommendation here.  I'm fairly new participant in Forums, so maybe there's a reason that I see here this recommendation I don't know.  The Malwarebytes has really done his job and even if I run MS Essentials program found Malwarebytes 25 hits of Mal-ware on this PC.  Once I have it fixes these problems, the symptoms of my problem of Snipping Tools became less consistent.

    If Malwarebytes fixed part of the problem with the Snipping incroyables.* *.

    2 but the final resolution is that it turns out that there is that one Internet site where the tool captures will not work and it is my Bank.  I know that my Bank suggested I run a program called safety report.  It's my theory that is my bank site or report has something programmed into it that prevents screen either with the tool to capture and print screen captures.  If I go into my bank site with Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox, the Snipping Tool will not work.  However, the Snipping Tool works everywhere else.  It's all the other websites and in other programs.

    The Snipping Tool does not work on my banking site (probably because of the REPORT) and maybe it will not work on other sites closely to secure *.

    Thank you very much for the help.

  • Snipping Tool for Windows 7 Home Basic 64-bit

    Hai

    Depending on the topic, I use Win 7 64 bit, which is Snipping Tool.

    If anyone knows how to turn on or download from Microsoft of property to provide the procedure.

    As I tried to search this tool to "Turn Windows features on or off".

    but I do not find Option or 'Tablet PC components optional', I can get this tool.

    That's why I need your support for download/activate this tool.

    Hi Mohammed,.

    You say you have window 7 Home Basic.

    According to this site: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/products/features/snipping-tool

    "Snipping Tool is available only in the Home Premium, professional, full and business Windows 7 editions."

    I suggest that you use your favorite search engine and look for free alternatives.

    See you soon,.

  • "The cutting tool does not work on your computer right now. Restart etc. "comes when I select the Snipping Tool icon.

    The error message "the snipping tool does not work on your computer right now. Restart etc. "comes when I select the Snipping Tool icon.  However if I select snipping tool in the menu start nothing happens at all.

    Original legislative:

    M.

    Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

    If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

    -

    You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type CMD in the search box, right-click on CMD. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

    -

    Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

    `

    When you get your system in good working condition, I invite you to back up your system up to an external hard drive and make it regular periodic updates.

    I hope this helps. Good luck.

  • Windows 10 Snipping Tool works only with Firefox

    I've uppgraded Windows 8.1 to 10. The cutting tool works in W8.1. Got the new tool from Snippping W10. It works with Edge and other apps, but when I click on the new button, when I'm in Firefox I just get a completely gray screen. I have tried on several Web site and get the same grey screen.

    Hello, I found the source of my problem. This is the IBM Security Trusteer report software. It has an option to block the screen capture. This must have turned on when I upgraded to Windows 10. I have this turned off and the Snipping Tool now works with Firefox.

    Thanks a lot for your help.

  • What happened to Snipping Tool?

    HP Pavilion Slimline s5213w running under Windows 7 64-bit

    1. earlier today, I ran Snipping Tool for the first time: START-online snip => enter; Select the tool-online entry. It worked fine and I did a snip and saved. A few minutes later I tried again and this time instead of "Tool captures" all I could get was "saving steps to reproduce a problem. How can I get that back?

    2. According to the AskLeo cutting tool should be available under the menu START-accessories online, but he's not here.

    I can still get to the tool, but not in the menu START. In addition, support allows access to the Snipping Tool and it explains how to use but it says Nothing about how to access outside assistance.

    Hello

    Step 1: Make sure the executable Snipping Tool is always present on your system (and has not been removed by a virus)

    The executable file must be located in C:\Windows\System32\SnippingTool.exe

    Step 2: To start, you have different options:

    -Double-click on the executable file located in "C:\Windows\System32\.

    OR - Press Win + R, then type "snippingtool" (without the quotes) and validate

    OR - right-click on the executable and select "pin to taskbar" or "pin to start menu", to create shortcuts to these places

    OR - right-click on the executable and select "create shortcut" and then move the shortcut to the place you want.

  • Remove the Snipping Tool

    January 14, 2009 I got my office restarted by Microsoft, the capture tool was pinned in the Start Menu,.

    After the re - start the capture tool had been removed from the Start Menu, so far I have been unable to locate

    the tool captures in the programmes and subprogrammes.  I've damaged the optic nerves and I found

    the tool captures to be more convenient to view, print (things like bus schedules, entertainment),

    to accommodate my eye problems.  How to re - install the tool captures in my programs and start

    Menu, please.

    I am assuming that you tried the research of the cutting tool by typing snip in the search box on the Start Menu. If not, please try that first. Otherwise, you should be able to locate the Snipping tool in your system32 folder.
    Here's how:
    1. open Windows Explorer (start > computer)
    2. double-click on the "C" drive (the drive where your operating system is installed, or the C drive).
    3. double-click on the "Windows" folder The system warns you that the files in this folder are the essential system files and should not be modified or removed. Continue nevertheless.
    4. scroll down and find the contents of the folder "System32". Double click on it.
    5 organize the files in alphabetical order by name and scroll down to the section "s". Looking for a file named "SnippingTool.exe. Once you have found it, right-click on it and choose "Pin to Start Menu" or "Add to Quick Launch" as you wish. This will create a new shortcut for the tool in your Start menu or on your Quick Launch bar. Or, if you prefer, you can choose "send to" and then "desktop (create shortcut)" in the context menu instead. This will create a shortcut tool cutting on your desktop. Under no circumstances should you delete or move the 'SnippingTool.exe' file in the System32 folder, however.
    Please let us know if this solves your problem.
    Best wishes

    Where is Snipping Tool? If deleted accidentally, how can I get a copy for Windows Vista?

    Hello Bob w. NY

    Click on the Start button and type capture in the search box menu star. The cutting tool application should appear at the top of the search results.

    As the cutting tool is an integral part of Windows, you might have to reinstall windows to return to the tool. Assuming, of course, you had accidentally deleted.

    This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.
