OneNote Screen Clipping tool HotKeys in Windows 10?

I use MS OneNote. Initially the Windows+S would bring up screen clipping tool..In windows 8.1 Windows+S became for search..so then I used a work around posted on the MS blog which made the Windows+A the screen clipping tool (via regedit).

https://blogs.office.com/2013/06/27/windows-8-1-preview-and-a-workaround-for-your-favorite-wins-shortcut-key/

Now with Windows 10, Window+A is for Action Center, so now my screen clipping tool does not work

How can I fix this?

I tried Windows+Shift+S and that does not work either

Or what else can I change the regedit value to?

This is an issue but there are ways. The link under will take you to a page that explanes the new way.

The only way is to go down by your clock an click the ^ button. There you see a cutting tool image for

 onenote. You right click it -> OneNote icon default -> take screen clipping. Now this icon is your new shortcut(t)

OR you use:

windowsbutton + shift + S

    I did follow your recommendation to Dennis' post ( re Bruno Heck on Regedit)

    There was no shortcut key listed for the screen clipping tool.  In addition it does not appear on the Insert menu either.

    I'm sure the solution must have been posted somewhere.  I used Snipping tool + App (long process) to get the following screenshot but not quite the same thing as I would like One note Screen Clipping to work or at least show itself !

    For information, Windows 10 did map almost all possible windows+letter shortcuts except windowskey+C

    So windowskey+C worked for me.

    BUT it stopped working in the last version of windows 10, the one that let you make folders on the start screen (April 2017).
