This worked for me and I was so happy! But then when I restarted my computer it reverted back to hiding the screenshot behind everything. I checked my settings and it was still set to Never, but it no longer works.
Why does my snipping tool no longer bring up the pop up image to edit?

My Snip tool used to bring the image I captured in a pop up automatically, that I could edit when using the windows key & Ctrl S. It no longer does this? Is there a setting I need to change? I have to actually open the Snip Tool Menu to get this to work now. Not sure if some update was done by my IT people that changed this.

Do this:
* START
* SETTINGS
* APPS
* INSTALLED APPS
* Click on the ... by Snipping Tool
* Click on Advanced Options
* Under BACKGROUND APPS PERMISSIONS
* Click Never
Job done :)
