The Snipping Tool is a built-in utility in Windows 10 that allows users to capture an image of anything visible on their screen. You can access this utility by searching for Snipping Tool in the Search Box. You can then start capturing different portions of the screen. They can be rectangular, or you may select custom shapes by selecting the free-form snip from the Mode drop-down menu. Microsoft has improved the reliability of the screen snipping experience, especially for applications that access the clipboard often. Microsoft is also temporarily removing the ability to copy and paste a snip directly into a folder using File Explorer. The reason for this is the feedback from Insiders highlighting an issue with the feature. However, it’s not confirmed whether this ability will be brought back, depending upon whether the issue can be resolved in time. These were the only improvements introduced with this new release. Moreover, no known issues have been identified with it so far.
