• The cutting tool will not "save under" Win 8 Pro

  After you use the cutting tool, the program freezes to the command prompt "save under"... I just upgraded to Win 8 pro. I also ran sfc /scannnow to repair corrupt files... Nothing is presented with an error...

  Any advice would be great!

  Hi Josh,.

  It would be great if you could answer these questions to help you further.

  1. have you made changes on the computer before this problem?

  2. you receive an error message or error code?

  If you are facing the question recently, then I suggest you to perform system restore to a point when the computer was working fine.

  Note: when you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

• The cutting tool does not scroll

  The cutting tool is a very nice feature, but only as long as you can get the entire area you want to cut at the same time on the screen.  I'm not aware of any way to scroll a page of text that is longer than the screen.  Are there tricks to do this?

  Hi Jaander,

  Snipping Tool can only be used as a capture of screen, or snip, of any object you see on your screen.  Thus, the cutting tool cannot scroll. You may need to scroll down the screen and then use the tool.

• The cutting tool does not work after windows updates.

  I read answers to similar questions about the failure of the cutting tool.  I use the tool cutting regularly and I think it's a fantastic tool in Windows. I have Vista Ultimate and all my windows updates have managed: none were not installed correctly, and I did not install new programs or hardware.  It seems that Microsoft knows the snipping tool does not - why can't they simply provide an update patch to correct the problem, rather than make us do all the work.  I don't have to go through hoops of restorations etc to get something it seems work was broken by updates.  I'm about to go to a Mac.

  It worked for me! Thank you!

• The cutting tool not working anymore... :-(__It was my favorite thing...

  For some reason my Snipping Tool no longer works. I clicked and 10 or 20 seconds, and I get the error: the cutting tool does not work on your computer right now. Restart your computer, and then try again. If the problem persists, contact your system administrator.

  I did a scan of the disc, and the Tablet PC optional components meet. (Enabled).

  This is a dell computer that came preloaded, so I don't think that I can recreate the cutting tool of a disc. ALSO... mysteriously, my tool of Windows Live Mail has decided to not SEND email at the same time.

  I have chased google and hope you can help. It's me MISSING.

  Suggestions:

  1. If it is possible: to do a system restore. Choose the date free snipping worked as your restore point.

  Start button > Search box, type system restore > press the Enter key > uac prompt > click on choose a different restore point > next > select dates as your restore point, until the click > next > finish
  To sit and wait. The machine restarts when it's done.

  2. start > Search box, type system32 (that's a Word) > Enter > system32-box right, superior search window type SnippingTool.exe (that's a word too).
  Don't you see that SnippingTool.exe appears?
  If so, click it or PIN to the Start Menu or the desktop (create shortcut).

  For the benefits of others looking for answers, please mark as answer suggestion if it solves your problem.

• The cutting tool are not sent Snip to the e-mail recipient.

  The cutting tool are not sent Snip of recipient of mail on Windows Live Mail 2011.  Had worked on earlier versions.  Click on the send Snip button, and nothing happens.

  A couple of things you could try.

  Launch the tool captures via a right click on it and select 'run as administrator '.

  See if the uninstallation and reinstallation of the Snipping Tool makes a difference.

  This is a quote from Ronnie Vernon.

  "Try refreshing the Snipping Tool installation. This tool is part of the Tablet PC optional components in Windows Vista.

  Open Control Panel, click Classic view in the task pane.

  Double-click programs and features.

  Click on the 'activate Windows features and turn off' in the task pane.

  This window may take a few minutes to display.

  When the options appear in the list, scroll to the "Tablet PC Optional Components" and remove the check mark for this element.

  Click OK, quit everything and restart the computer.

  This allows to uninstall the "Snipping Tool" System.

  Once the computer restarts, go back to the Panel and repeat the same procedure.

  This time the check box adds the "Tablet PC Optional Components".

  This will install these components in the system with a new copy of all the files. »
