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.

    Go to Notifications

    Turn ON notifications from other apps and senders

    I apologize if this is off-topic but I am finally able to get back in!

    I had to reinstall my MS 365 again for the maybe 3rd time? This time I got my snipping tool back the way it was originally.

    Shift +Windows + S.

    Tool pops up with a sound.

    I click on it.

    Save it.

    I know there's a glitch in MS 365 that obviously hasn't been remedied. Also, if I "X" out of the app, I have to start over. So I never X out. It's a pain but at least I have access toy emails. Very important rn.

    I don't have that turned on and the window still stays behind the others.

    nothing works on getting it to be the forward window. i hate it because i loved that tool and now it's more trouble than its worth. I recently switched to Windows 11 and have found out this is all we have to work with. People should enjoy Windows 10 while they can!

    i ended up downloading a different snipping tool and just use that now.
