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

    Any tip?

    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.

    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

    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)
