Split from this thread.

Sure did. Tried also repair and reset.

It didn't help.

Would be nice to be able to install older versions in cases like this.

Hi Sibro,

I solved the Snipping Tool problem by restoring 25284 and then upgrading to 25295 directly, skipping 25290.1000 and 25290.1010.

Snipping tool works fine now on the same machine that was failing when it went from 25290.1010 to 25295.1000.

Go figure!

What made me suspicious was that error on DCOM 25290.1010.

    Be advised they are also investigating why the

    workaround is not working for some.

    Thanks! but I wasn't affected by this bug.

    It seems that users with the old app still installed might be the ones experiencing it, just a guess.

    Which old app are you referring to?

    It worked here by setting this default, I had it fixed differently on previous build 25295.

    If I reset all deafault apps, the snipping tool fails again.

    I thought that "Screen Snipping" is the old version of Snipping Tool.

    What does it do?

    The "+ New" button does not work at all when it fails. Setting MS-SCREENCLEEP as default as suggested in the blog, fixes the problem.

    Not easy to find where to set it, but it works. 😎🤣🤣

    If I Reset all default apps it fails again, see previous 2 posts.

    I meant what does "Screen Snipping" do on its own?

    Is it an actual app? never paid attention to it before.

    I can't confirm nor deny your findings, didn't/don't have this issue. 🤷‍♂️
