Snippingtool exe для windows 10 скачать

Snipping Tool lets you capture your screen and save the screenshots in your local drive or cloud storages, or upload them to Imgur for sharing. It can be integrated with some browsers, supports keyboard shortcuts for quick captures, and provides a few editing features.

If you take a look at it, Snipping Tool looks good, but it is actually full of annoyances. The reason is because it will keep bombarding you with upgrade notifications. And if you don’t want to see the ads that keep popping up from time to time, you have to allow BrightData to use your computer resources to download the so-called public data from the internet.

Features and Highlights

Screen capture software typically reside in the notification area during the operation, so does Snipping Tool. It has a plus icon in white color on a blue background which makes it easily noticeable.

A left click on it will dim the screen and change the cursor appearance to a rather big plus icon. To take a screenshot, drag the cursor around the area of the screen that you need to capture. Full screen capture is supported if you need to capture everything you see on the screen. There is a keyboard shortcut to perform the capture but it cannot be changed.

Once a screenshot has been taken, you can annotate it with arrows, lines, text, circle, or rectangle. Important areas can be highlighted.

Snipping Tool can blur any part of the screenshot that you need to hide, but it is a pro feature so free users won’t be able to use it. If you blur your screenshot very often, and if you aren’t willing to upgrade Snipping Tool, there are other alternatives that provide the blur functionality without demanding you to pay even a single dime.

When it is running, Snipping Tool consumes around 133 MB memory. For a software that offers few features, the memory consumption is too high. Combined with the lack of portability and keyboard shortcut customization, there is little to no reason to use this screen capture software.

There is nothing unique about Snipping Tool. Its editing panel resembles that of Lightshot and its pro features are available for free in ShareX: automatic watermark, video and GIF recording, OCR, blurring, scrolling capture, uploading screenshots to web, etc. It doesn’t make sense to pay for features that you can get for free from other software.

Snipping Tool Free Download for Windows

Snipping Tool is marketed as a free screen capture, but there are hidden pro features that will trigger upgrade notifications when you try to use any of them. On top of that, the notifications also appear very frequently when you save the screenshots that eventually you will probably fed up with it. And don’t forget about the BrightData offer.

ShareX, Greenshot, and Lightshot are way much better than this Snipping Tool and they are completely free without a catch. Still, if you’re willing to give it a shot for some reason, you can click the link below to download Snipping Tool for Windows:

Windows 11 comes with a free snipping tool, formerly known as “Snip & Sketch”. This snipping tool allows you to capture and edit screenshots on your Windows PC. However, there have been reports of the snipping tool missing when you upgrade to Windows 11.

If you are experiencing a similar issue, this guide post shows you how to download and install the snipping tool again.

Snipping Tool is a free screen capture utility built into Windows and Windows 11. You can take a screenshot of the complete screen, capture portions of the screen (like app windows), or any custom shape on the screen. You can also add annotations to the screen capture. The Snipping Tool is preinstalled with Windows and can be run by pressing the Windows Key + Shift + S keyboard shortcut keys.

The captured screenshot is then saved to the clipboard and can be edited using the Snipping Tool editor.

The Snipping Tool was previously known as “Snip & Sketch.” However, since Windows 11 was launched in 2021, its UI has been redesigned to be more in tone with the OS. With the Snipping Tool, you can take screenshots without installing any third-party software. It also acts as a good editing tool.

If your PC is missing the Sniping Tool, all you need to do is download it from Microsoft Store. But before we do that, let us go over the minimum system requirements.

Follow the given steps below to download and install the Snipping Tool using the method of your choice:

Using Microsoft Store

1. Open the official Snipping Tool Microsoft Store page using any web browser.

2. Click on “Get in Store app.”

   

3. Click “Open Microsoft Store” if prompted for permission.

   

   The Microsoft Store app should now be open.

4. Click “Install.”

   

   The Windows Snipping Tool will now begin downloading and then installing.

5. Once it is installed, click “Open.”

   

Using Direct Download

1. Open the Google Drive link for Snipping Tool and download the whole file.

   

2. Run the downloaded MSIX file.

   

   The installation wizard will now launch.

3. Click “Install.”

   

The Snipping Tool app will now be installed on your PC and run automatically.

Your system must meet these minimum system requirements to be able to run Snipping Tool successfully:

• PC should be running Windows 10 version 22000.0 or higher.
• The processor you are using should be Core i5 5th Gen or later.
• RAM should be at least 512 MB or bigger.
• Available space on your PC should be at least 1GB.

You can launch the Snipping Tool by pressing the Windows Key + Shift + S shortcut keys, or by searching for it in the Start menu.

When the tool is run, you can select which mode to choose.

Selecting “New” will allow you to capture any selected area on the screen in a rectangle. However, you can change it to Window mode, Full-Screen mode, or Free-Form mode from the drop-down menu in the middle.

Each of these modes has a different purpose. Window mode automatically selects an entire app window, while Full-Screen mode captures the entire screen across all connected monitors.

If you select Free-Form mode, you can make your selection of the captured area in any shape or size. Here is an example of what we captured using Free-Form mode:

Additionally, you can also select a timer (delay) from the top menu inside the Snipping Tool using the first drop-down menu from the right. This allows you to capture the screen automatically after a certain time after the area has been selected.

Snipping Tool also allows you to save, share, and even print the captured image.

That being said, if you opt to use an alternative to capture your screen or don’t capture it at all, you can uninstall the Snipping Tool.

Follow these steps to uninstall Snipping Tool on Windows 11:

1. Navigate to:

   Settings app >> Apps >> Installed Apps

2. Search for “Snipping Tool.”

   

3. Right-click the 3 dots in front of “Snipping Tool.”

   

4. Click “Uninstall.”

   

5. Click “Uninstall” again.

   

Snipping Tool will now be removed from your computer.

Closing Words

Snipping Tool is a convenient tool to use to screenshot, share, and save. However, there are many alternatives available today that perform the same or better than the Snipping Tool, like Snagit, LightShot, etc. For example, we use Snagit, as it has integrated shape insertions and other cool features that fit our needs.

That said, the Snipping Tool is Microsoft’s product. Therefore, it is safe to use and light on the Windows OS.
