The sfc & DISM combo didn't work for me so I wanted to give what you suggest a try but I don't see notifications anywhere in snip & stretch properties or settings. How did you get there? Thanks!

My snip and sketch tool has stopped working. I open the app, select new, highlight the area to snip but then nothing happens. I have tried refreshing the app and uninstalling and reinstalling but neither have resolved the issue.

2020-08-29T18:24:11+00:00 I stumbled upon a fix for the "snip" problem I was having.
I wanted to change a notification for an unrelated app in settings. I happened to notice that notifications were turned off for Snip & Sketch (pretty sure I didn't do this), but maybe latest update did?? Anyways I turned notifications on for snip & sketch and "snip" worked for me again.
Hope this might help others.

I've noticed more than a few folks complaining that recent updates have broken this app. In my case, I can no longer "snip" which I was able to do before these recent updates. App had an update on 8/17/2020 - still broke.
