Pinning the Snipping Tool to the Taskbar, creates a permanent icon on the Windows Taskbar. Pinning the Snipping Tool to Start, creates a ’tile’ for the software, in the group of tiles to the right of the Start menu. If you’re going to use the Snipping Tool frequently, then you may want to take advantage of one of two options in the right-click context menu on the Snipping Tool, namely ‘Pin to Start’ and ‘Pin to Taskbar’. The Snipping Tool should be listed in this folder. Scroll down to the ‘W’ section and click on the Windows Accessories folder. This brings up an alphabetical list of programs and folders. So, to start the Snipping Tool, click on the Start icon and then the All Apps option.
It now lives in a location where we are probably more used to accessing it from. Update: As pointed out by our readers, Microsoft have moved the Snipping Tool in its final release version of Windows 10.
