Why is my windows default snipping tool shortcut not working after 1 upgraded to Windows 10 20H2? Suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
 
Maybe because Snipping Tool was replaced by Snip & Sketch

Mine still works and it's a new install.
The location of the program is at
C:\Windows\system32
There you will find SnippingTool.exe
Drag it out to your desktop or whereever and create a shortcut to it in the normal way
 
I don't know why they had to mess with that. What is the motivation to say, "things have been this way for a long time. Let's change it". A la Windows 8 no start button.
 
Mine still works too, but I've already got used to the Snip & Sketch keyboard shortcut and prefer to use this one.
