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.

    1. Open up the Snipping Tool App
    2. In the top right, click the 3 dots, and go to Settings.
    3. Disable Automatically save screenshots
    4. Take a screen shot with Win + Shift + S
    5. Popup notification appears as we've all wanted!

    I think this may be it. I have tried all of the other solutions, but this finally worked and I am now getting the notifications after taking a screenshot with either Print Screen or Win + Shift + S.

    Hopefully this helps!

    That's indeed the only thing that worked... So the default behavior of the snipping tool was completely changed by introducing a feature no one asked for and enabling this whithout any information! Slow clap!

    I suggest following hotfix: Disable the feature by default.

    Greetings to the developer! Good job! ;-)

    For me an update last week fixed it. Screenshots are saving and in the meantime popups show up again.

    Devs must have seen this thread 🙌
