I started getting this error.
Going into windows features, unchecking tablet pc options, rebooting, checking tablet pc, rebooting, did not resolve.
cmd as admin sfc /scannow did not resolve.
Tempted to find snipping tool.exe online and just copy it into my system.
Any ideas?
TIA
The tablet option was only relevant in Vista. There are much better snipping tools out there. I use Jing. You can program it to a function key for triggering which allows to capture tooltips and fly-outs - like this. Plus comments, arrows, etc.
I'll be checking this out myself. Thanks whs!
JustWatching ...... I'm assuming you have some version of MS Office installed on your machine? Try this:
Start an Office application, MS Word for instance > In the top left corner click on the MS Office Logo > Click the Options button > In the box that comes up look in the left hand side for Resources > choose Diagnostics. It will run and repair any errors (snipping tool)
Ended up going with Jing, never got snipping tool working again.
Jing is a much better snipping tool anyhow. Did you program it to trigger from a Function key ?? That is really handy because you can also catch the context menus.
I do not follow these thread and replies. Windows7 under accessories has built in snipping tool that works very well for me. Why the need to go elsewhere?
There are 2 possible reasons:
1. On some systems, the snipping tool does not seem to work. So it is an alternative (there are others too)
2. Jing has a lot more functions than the snipping tool - especially the ability to trigger it from a function key. That allows to also capture context stuff. Try this with the snipping tool.
