This guide will show you how to enable or disable automatic screenshot saving for the Snipping Tool app on Windows 11 .
The Snipping Tool app includes a built-in screen recorder and lets you quickly capture and annotate screenshots, photos, and other images using pen, touch, or mouse, then save, paste, or share with other apps.
Starting with Snipping Tool version 11.2209.2.0, Snipping Tool will now automatically save your screenshots by default to Screenshots in the Pictures folder (e.g. "%UserProfile%\Pictures\Screenshots" ) for your account.
