  OK, snipping tool is a feature I use often and it worked last week, but after some MS updates and it is now broken...

  He actually locked my computer until I had to reset hard several times.

  I followed all the guides etc. as verification and testing, sfc/scannow flashes only so no issues there.

  No hardware or additional software have been added since this problem started last week.
  Because today, I now get a message that says:

  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.

• He Snip tool settings

  Hi, was happy with the far cutting tool. I've used the cutting tool and when I chose the desired airei snip I exposed it and clicked on save, choose the name of the file and then save it to the location and the area that I've snipped was copied and saved (only the area) now when I even snip saved as a file opens as any browser with the snip in a tab of the browser. I would like to just the area I have not chiseled the entire browser to open when I see it. Does anyone know how to get back to the way it was working before. (not just snip all browser open)

  Thank you...

• 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.

• Vista Snipping Tool - accidentally deleted from the computer. How can this be restored?

  I accidentally deleted the tool cutting on my windows vista computer.  I sent the tool cutting on the desk and I should have created a shortcut on the desktop. I thought I was remove a shortcut and not the actual tool. I looked on the computer of the tool, but it seems to have disappeared completely.  I can't run system restore because it was some time before I realized my mistake and you do not have a date for the restoration. Searched in the downloads of Microsoft but only capture tool is for tablets.  Please help as I really like this tool

  Hi GailWilton,

  If you open your Windows Explorer program, go to the C:\windows\System32 folder, you see the file Snippingtool.exe?

  If so, you should be able to right click and do a sortcut to your desktop or add a shortcut to the Quick Launch bar

  Otherwise, you can try the following steps and check.

  Step 1:

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

  a. open Control Panel, click Classic view in the task pane.

  b. double-click programs and features.

  c. 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.

  d. click OK, leave everything and restart the computer.

  Once the computer restarts, go back to control 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.

  Step 2:

  You also, try to run a SFC scan to check all corrupted files.

  You can read the following article to launch the SFC scan:

• Snipping Tool question - how to capture several shears

  original title; Question of tool cutting

  How can I capture multiple captures in a single file, using the Snipping Tool?

  Hi Luvminou,

  It is not possible to capture several captures both. You can use the tool to capture the unique screenshot capture and save it and after that you will need to take another and then you can save it.

  It is possible to keep together, but do not capture multiple captures both

• Post-it Note, Snipping Tool, Sound Recorder etc missing from the Start Menu

  Some integrated programs have suddenly disappeared in the folder 'Accessories' in the Start Menu, including sticky notes, Snipping Tool, Sound Recorder, and record Tablet PC Tools was empty too and maybe even more than programs that I do not know. (I don't know why this happened, the only reason why I can think of is maybe I fell a development of my antivirus program).

  I looked online for solutions, I tried:

  -Option unchecking and rechecked the "Tablet PC Tools' of the 'Turn Windows has or not', which bought only the programs in the Tablet PC Tools in the Start Menu folder, but not the Post-it Notes and other

  -Restore to an earlier point, but did not work

  -Enter sfc/scannow in the command prompt but it has said is that Windows has no problems of integrity or something after scanning and solves nothing

  The programs are always there, I found 3 of them in C:/Windows/System32 as exe files and they work from there, but they just will not be displayed in the Start Menu or when I do a search. I don't know what else is missing. Is it possible to bring them back in the start menu? Would be fixed it with a factory reset? - but I don't really want to do a factory reset, unless I am out of options.

  Help would be much appreciated!

  A factory reset would, but that's certainly an exaggeration just to restore shortcuts.

• "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.

  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.

  Hello

  Hi the Snipping Tool works well on desktop applications in Windows 8, but not on the store modern user interface applications.
