I cant give you a screen shot because I can't copy it.

Thank you,

Some day I'll retire, and die, and then I won't ever have to deal with Microsoft products again.I'm looking forward to it.

2024-10-18T02:06:02+00:00 Here is my contribution to the long list of complains:
- Snipping Tool uses a dumb, hard coded Capture.xxx file name which forces you to edit it before saving several images to the same folder. Snip and Sketch appended date and time to your screen captures. You rename it if you want, but otherwise they are saved in an ordered sequence.
- Snip and Sketch remembered your root file name and target folder between sessions.
- The handy keyboard shortcut Windows Key + Shift + S that I use frequently still works with the four capture modes, window, rectangle, freeform, and whole screen, but the captured image remains in the clipboard instead of opening it Snipping Tool as it did with Snipp and Sketch. That means that you must open another app like Paint and manually past it there. It doesn't past in Snipping Tool in case you want to annotate the image.
Also, don't look for WORDPAD as a target to paste the capture. Did anybody notice that itis also missing? that was a sure bet when documenting something on a customer computer in a neutral RTF file format, safe to email.
It seems that Microsoft removed tools that has been there for ever to make room for garbage that nobody needs or wants. What will be the next casualty in Windows 12?, Notepad?
