About

Take a snapshot to copy words or images from all or part of your PC screen. Use Snipping Tool to make changes or notes, then save, and share. Windows 10 has another screenshot app you might also like to try. When you open Snipping Tool, you’ll see an invitation and keyboard shortcut to Snip & Sketch. For more info on this app, see How to take and annotate screenshots on Windows 10. Draw a free-form shape around an object. Drag the cursor around an object to form a rectangle. Select a window, such as a dialog box, that you want to capture. Select a window, such as a dialog box, that you want to capture. Capture the entire screen.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • 1) Pricing. No subscriptions. Fixed low price ($19.95 lifetime license). 2) Consistent behaviour through generations of versions - no UI suprises. 3) Been around for years 4) Very configurable hotkeys, etc. 5) Built in, post-capture, full window editor. 6) Stable product.

Cons

  • 6) Build a MacOS version PLEASE!! 7) Take a hard, hard look at MacOS's built in screen capture tool. This is the gold standard. Now build in the post-capture, full window editor. Port to MacOS and Windows. Now we are cooking.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • - This tool makes sending screenshots so easy, even for users who are usually tech adverse. - The copy / paste feature makes for quick communication in instant messaging apps among teams.

Cons

  • The free-form drawing feature would be useful but doesn't exist.
