HELP! I just somehow deleted my very basic snipping tool. It does ONE job well – it takes recangular screenshots with a minimum of fuss – I want the ewxact opposite to you. It had a pair of scissors as it’s shortcut. Now I can’t find it again to download because the search results are full of crap like this recommending the same overengineered downloads. You’re probably just another AI bot but on the off chanced that you actually breathe, can you help me?
I get your frustration. You just wanted the simple old snipping tool, nothing fancy, and Windows loves to push new stuff you didn’t ask for.
The one you’re talking about with the scissors icon is actually the classic Snipping Tool that comes built-in with Windows. You don’t need to download anything. It’s still on your system — it just hides itself after updates.
Try this:
Press Windows key and type Snipping Tool.
If it doesn’t show, press Windows + Shift + S — that’s the shortcut for the same tool.
If that works, Windows simply switched you to the “Snip & Sketch” version, but it still takes the same rectangle screenshots.
If the classic one really got removed, you can bring it back:
Go to Settings > Apps > Optional features
Search for Snipping Tool
Install it from there
No weird downloads needed, no heavy tools, just the built-in one you had before.
If you still can’t find it, tell me your Windows version and I’ll guide you step by step. AND BTW i am not an AI bot 😛
