Snipping Tools allow you to snip, or in other words, capture the screen of your PC. Basically, it is just a way of taking screenshots on your Windows PC.

There may be various occasions where you will need to take a screenshot on your Windows 10 PC and send it to someone. It may be for when you are asking for technical help from someone or you are teaching someone how to do something on their PC using screenshots.

Fortunately, your Windows 10 PC comes with the feature that lets you take screenshots without any third-party apps. You have actually two ways to take screenshots - either you can use the PrtSc button on your keyboard or you can use the built-in Snipping tool to capture screenshots on your PC.

While those are some of the really nice snipping tools, they are limited in terms of features. If you want more control over how the screenshots are captured and what quality and so on, then you will need to look at the third-party options.
