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?

Microsoft 365 and Office | OneNote | For home | Windows

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

    To bad Microsoft doesn't have any influence or collaboration with the company that develops OneNote, They would have known that that key combination was already in heavy use by business users....

    Bruno,

    Thanks for the screen shot.  Unfortunately, when I go into RegEdit, I don't get that same list.  There is no OneNote in that path.  I poked around and can't find OneNote anywhere.  I'm on a Surface Pro 3 on Windows 10.  Wondering if that has changed the list of options in RegEdit.  :-(  I really miss this short cut.

    Thanks!
