    I cannot activate Snip & Sketch.
    Tried to reset and reinstall app, enabled clipboard history...none of them works.

    try this and see if it turns on

    %windir%\system32\SnippingTool.exe

    or u mite have to re-install windows again that will fix the issue.

    This open the tool, not act like the shortcut.
     
  5. do you want snipping tool shortcut to be placed on desktop via batch script.

    Make sure your clipboard service is running.

    Code:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\cbdhsvc]
    "Start"=dword:00000003
    "UserServiceFlags"=dword:00000003
    
     
    Stop hovering to collapse... Click to collapse... Hover to expand... Click to expand...

    Clipboard service is working perfectly for me.
    Except this sniping tool.

    Before integrating Windows Experience Pack was working perfectly.
    But now it's hopeless case o_O

    I also had this problem and tried so very many things.
    I found an answer and originally posted it on microsoft answers (I'm a new member and can't post links yet)
