    I agree that MS should fix this problem.  However, until they do, you can use the snipping tool with almost the same ease.  The Snipping Tool has a lot of functionality.  Once you open it and select New Snip you can frame/select, and then save, send, copy (and paste into another application such as Word), or print from it.  You need to set it up so you can get to it easily.

    1. Find the tool under Windows Accessories  in Windows 10.
    2. Right click on it.  The choices are:
      • Pin to Start Menu.  NOTE:  If you want to, you can pin the tool to the Start Menu But I wouldn't bother because there is a better option under More.
      • More
    3. Select More. The choices are:
      • Pin to taskbar
      • Run as Administrator
      • Go to File Location
    4. Select Pin to Taskbar.  This makes the snipping tool always available in any application.
    5. To find even more options and settings for the Tool, select Go to File Location.  A listing of all files displays.  Snipping Tool is highlighted.
    6. Right click on the Snipping Tool file to see the options.  You can also find options by Right clicking on the Tool Icon after you have pinned it to your tool bar.

    Hope this helps.  I used to write user manuals and I have walked through all of the above.

    I copy the selection to MS Word and print from there. While in MS Word, you can edit or modify the format.

    Still a pain in the ****.
