Snipping Tool For Mac Save Location

Posted on  by 

You can start the snipping tool from a command line ( snippingtool ) but beyond this, I don't see any commands that could actually operate the program to capture and save the capture. Step 3: Once you have launched the tool, go to ‘Options’ and ensure that the boxes, ‘Always copy snips to the Clipboard’,’ Include URL below snips (HTML only)’,’ Prompt to save snips before exiting’ and ‘Show screen overlay when Snipping Tool is active’ are checked.

Microsoft provided the screenshot program that is really perfect for Windows’s users. With Windows Snipping Tool, you can easily take an area captures or entire screenshots and then insert text, graphics, or any associated annotations, simply save them to your PC. You surely don’t have to install any third-party tools to take a screenshot.

  • Usually opening Snipping tool is just a search away in Start Menu of Windows 8 or 10. But in new laptops/notebooks with SSD where Windows 10 indexing service is disabled by default, searching Snipping tool doesn’t come out with appropriate result.

The Snipping Tool will let you take a screenshot through four different types of screenshots:

  • Free-form Snip: let you draw and grabs any unnatural area of the screen.
  • Rectangular Snip: let you move the pointer around with a rectangular shape.
  • Window Snip: allow you take an active window, just like a browser window, a program window, etc.
  • Full-screen snip: allow you can take a screenshot of the whole the screen.

The problem with Snipping Tool is that there aren’t any keyboard shortcuts to open it on Windows 10, Windows 8.1 as well as Windows 7, of course, you have to process a lot of steps to open it from Start Menu or Windows Explorer whenever you want to take a screenshot in Windows.
