In Windows 11 it'll soon default to the Snipping Tool. And that's just fine with users, right?

to the Insider Beta Channel, which includes the plan to change what happens when the PrtScr key is pushed. Rather than simply taking a shot of what's on the screen and storing it on the Clipboard, OneDrive or third-party apps like Dropbox, it will open Snipping Tool by default.

If they already have modified this setting, the preference will be preserved, according to Microsoft.noted that Snipping Tool already was an option in Windows 11 in the Accessibility Settings menu."All they are changing here is that it will be on by default instead of off."
