You can use the Snipping Tool to capture the screenshots of a particular window, a rectangular area, a free-form area, or the full screen. Capturing a screenshot is the quickest and easiest way to capture exactly what your screen is displaying in a picture format so you can share it with others or save it for future reference. Snipping Tool is a Windows screenshot utility that lets you take screenshots or snapshots of the entire screen, windows, or a particular area on your display. These two legacy apps were not entirely removed but instead, the best features of both apps were combined into a unified brand new Snipping Tool with some added functionalities. Microsoft just rolled a new revamped Snipping Tool that replaces both the classic Snipping Tool and the Snip & Sketch apps in Windows 11.
