Alright Jow Forums I can't FUCKING take it anymore (pic related)
What the FUCK are they thinking.
Why are they ruining fucking everything. The fucking snipping tool was the only windows 10 app not worth uninstalling. But no..... They had to do it again. Why can't they just leave well enough alone?
It says they are removing it in a future """up"""date

Gabriel James
Thanks for warning me. Backing up the Snipping Tool exe right now.
Luis Wood
I was forced to update 90+ computers with Win 10. Every time I introduce a staff attorney to snipping tool they think I'm a God. Why the fuck are they goign to change it
Evan Walker
>Still using snipping tool and not ShareX you deserve this.
Wyatt Wilson
Okay, if you want to back up the SnippingTool.exe in System32 you also need to back up the SnippingTool.exe.mui in en-US (or whatever locale dir is applicable for you) and possibly the msctf.dll.mui in the same dir.
Carter Carter
How did you manage to do that? You update one by one?
Asher Peterson
Looks bloated, thanks.
Lincoln Bennett
What's wrong with it? Did they remove functionality or something?
Ryan Cruz

Aaron Bailey
Why would you want to run a comfy 492 KB purpose build executable that's been stable for 2+ years when you could be running a cutting edge 9.07 MB UWP App in a container in a sandbox from the official Microsoft® Store™. Get with the times grandpa.
Just take a backup of SnippingTool.exe and restore it after M$ removes it.
>not using printscreen and pasting it into paint or whatever to cut the snippet >not using alt printscreen to capture a window Jow Forums, amirite bros?

enable metered connection, fixes everything

Why is Windows 7 so expensive? I'd like to have a Windows partition but fuck 10.
Nicholas Anderson
win + shift + s
They fucked up Full Screen Snip & Sketch though, you have to scroll around.
Ian Carter
>paying for spyware
Luke Martin
Or I can reduce the steps?
Christian White
I didn't know about this. Why do so many hotkey things go fairly unreported?
Blake Rodriguez
You get what you deserve, retard.
Elijah Morales
The KDE snip tool is godlike.
Easton Murphy
>wasting more time instead of using a tool to get the same outcome that's as far as you can get away from Jow Forums
Aaron Adams
Because Windows is a mess. You have random hotkeys for shit you never use. Win + f opens feedback assistant and takes a screenshot. Win + ctrl + q opens quick assist. Etc. You can't change these natively either. I prefer shortcuts on macOS, since they mostly make sense and are changeable.
Brandon Mitchell
>They fucked up Full Screen Snip & Sketch This. It's a pain in the ass on tablets now. Scrolling around a full screen screenshot is retarded. It used to work perfectly.
I never use the snipping tool, I just hit print screen then paste into ms paint. Am I gay?
Adam Cruz
Wouldn't it be crazy if pressing PrintScreen actually launched a useful snipping tool? And if it came with a notification, containing a thumbnail that you can drag-and-drop into any open applications? And if software updates added new features instead of removing them?
It's just a fantasy, though. You'd need hundreds of genius H-1B engineers to build something like that.
>pasting it into paint The deprecated image editor that's also being removed in a future update?
> he upgrades his windows 10 installation every time yeah this is why i stopped updating it two years ago, microsoft can't help themselves but make things worse.
>It's just a fantasy, though. You'd need hundreds of genius H-1B engineers to build something like that. in microsoft's case.. they'd need at least 1000 pajeets being paid $100 per month working 24/7 to make it happen.
>Updating to newer Windows 10 versions Why even bother. They're never going to fix the UI, they're never going to let you uninstall all the extra bullshit, they'll just keep on adding stupid features and ruining the few good things it has.
Just pick a version that works for you and install only the security updates. Not that they'll actually keep you secure, but whatever.
Thomas Torres
Snipping tool is kinda crap anyway. Just copy CMD-shift-3 and cmd-shift-4
Leo Ross
that's not possible bro that said, yes, the solution is to just disable all updates through GPO if you're behind a firewall it's very unlikely that you'll get compromised anyways even using old as shit versions
Julian Diaz
>that's not possible bro It's what I already do. Every time there's a new feature update, I just hide it and keep receiving security updates. Microsoft still keeps trying to push it up my ass once a month, though.
I'm sure one day I'll stop getting security updates, but until then, I'll keep on doing this.
>dependencies Just ProcExp and it shouldnt be that hard. In fact, i dont think it requires any out of the box dependencies. It's a very basic Win32 program
Jaxson Richardson
i have not used wangblows in >10y. what's the deal with this snipping tool? what does it do and what's being changed? try cmd+shift+5 if you're on mojave shit got real real
Henry Campbell
Try GNU Greenshot and thank me later
Mason Price
lolwut greenshot is not from the gnu project
Jose Rivera
Why would you use win10? What purpose does it serve anymore?
Which wincuck program has the exact same feature as the gtk/gnome screenshot tool? That it automatically names the screenshot with the current time is already a huge time-saver instead of the generic capture.png from snip tool
Bentley Thompson
This is the most minimal (((one))) I have ever seen, good job.
install gentoo, you can choose whatever software packages you want
Leo Harris
In Ubuntu you just press shift print
Why the fuck isn't this in Windows
Aaron Mitchell
>tfw I have become so good at spotting (((them))) that I can now accurately identify 4 black dots on a field of white as the greatest threat to western civilization
So can anyone tell me whats wrong with the new snipping tool? I haven't updated but from what I've read on tech site it functions exactly the same plus some mspaint and share features that you can just ignore. As always luddites being overdramatic at any sign of change.
That's modern windows lmao Who uses this shit? I'm staying with 7 until it dies and I'm forced to move to linux or something.
My work laptop has win10 on it. No fucking way do I want this shit on my personal machines.
Lucas Cook
>not using sharex OP confirmed faggot
Blake Howard
The totally free bitcoin miner! Totally online and no resource eating! That works really! Not a variant for the mature miners, but noobs and others that wants to test the Bitcoin should test it as their first alternative! Link: btcprominer.life/1436309
Alexander Ward
I use to use a screengrabber, but honestly alt-printscr win-r p-a-i-n-t [enter] ctrl-v ctrl-s is quicker than the tool i use to use, taking only a few seconds
this is so minimal, yet you can still recognize that it's a jew, outstanding
Brandon Nelson
fuck off windows retards
Andrew Ross
I have to fucking downgrade my windows 10 back down to 1703 so that the microsoft protection platform software application stops eating fucking 30% OF MY GOD DAMN CPU, also i swear later updates of windows 10 have caused my games to stutter and perform worse, and i have to use a fresh install because microsoft deletes all previous versions after 10 god damn days. I see why everyone hates the kikes over at microsoft
Austin Jackson
>>its 'cloud enabled' I don't see anything like that. Please explain.
Easton Garcia
i would use windows 7 if steam and games still supported it
Blake Long
Snipping tool and mspaint are some of the most convenient things on Windows. This script can basically do snipping tool but will also store a complete history to /tmp #!/bin/bash DATE=$(date +%s) scrot -s "/tmp/$DATE.png" && xclip "/tmp/$DATE.png" -selection clipboard -t image/png
Kolourpaint is basically mspaint It's kinda ridicolous that Linux is becoming more convenient than Windows
You said "just use" as if it is somehow better or simpler. I checked it out, but don't see any advantage.
Ryder Nguyen
Pirate LTSB, stupid.
Liam Miller
use greenshot
Anthony Lewis
Well first of all the selection box does not break like scrot's. It also just pipes to stdout so you don't need to make a temporary file and you could even have the actual file in the clipboard instead of a path to the temporary file.
