getting the old snipping tool back then involves a lot of copying the files for it
IMO creating 2 folders and copying 2 files is not a lot of copying? And the files are in that zip folder I uploaded to onedrive. All you have to do is download the folder from my Onedrive and unzip it. Uh...OK, to each his own..

Well yes Glasskuter mate I have to access those files from my old Windows 10 desktop machine and it makes it seem to be a long drawn out process. But having said that I suppose I can always copy/email myself with the files eh??

No you don't. I did it for you. The files are in that zip folder I sent you a link for. They are in my onedrive. Click the link. It takes you to my onedrive. Download the folder. Unzip it. And there they are. There is also a readme file.

If you don't trust my files, scan them with your AV or Malwarebytes.

If you are wondering if I don't trust you well I trust you implicitly as you and I have been using this forum for many years now :-)

Did you know you can also get the old Paint app back as well. Get Old Classic Paint for Windows 11 (Windows 10 app version)


Here's all the old versions of PAINT (near the bottom of the first post)...

    Still assembled, still runs. Haven't turned it on for 13 years?
Per the included readme note here it is again step by step. I am taking these instructions to the basics.
This instruction has been written for systems using US English region of Windows. What region one is using affects the name of the folder in step C.

I am assuming you know how to copy and paste files and create folders. If you don't know, here's how.

Anytime you get a user access control popup click YES

A. Open file explorer. Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\ and open the folder
1. While in the above folder, create a new folder.
2. Name it Snipping Tool.
3. Open the empty Snipping Tool folder you created.​

B. Open a NEW file explorer tab.
1. Navigate to \Desktop\​
2.On the Old Snipping Tool.zip file I sent you, you have to unzip the folder .. Right click on zipped folder and select extract all. Follow the instructions.. Browse to location wherever you chose to locate the unzipped folder and open the folder. .​
3. Copy the SnippingTool.exe file​

C. Click on the first file explorer tab. You should be at C:\Windows\System32\Snipping Tool empty folder
1. Paste the file in this folder​
2. Still in Snipping Tool folder create a new folder. Name it en-US. Open this empty folder.​
Note: You have to name this folder to correspond to whatever language/region you have installed your current machine. The way to find it is to browse to C:\Windows\System32. There you will see several folders beginning wit "en-" The "en-" folder that has a ton of mui files inside it is your language/region folder. The other folders will only have a few mui files inside them "If you need extra help finding your region message me and we can find the appropriate file name.. Once you know your language/region folder, that is the folder name to use.
D. Click on second file explorer tab
1. Copy SnippingTool.exe.mui​

E. Click on first file explorer tab. You should still be in empty en-US folder (or whatever /language/region folder name you used above)
1. Paste the file in this folder​
2. Click on the up arrow to the left of your file explorer address bar. This takes you up one folder level to​
C:\Windows\System32\Snipping Tool folder​
3. Right-click SnippingTool.exe file and drag it to the desktop and click Create shortcut here option from the menu.​

You can pin the shortcut to taskbar if you wish.
That's as detailed as I can make it to create 2 new folders and copy and paste 2 files.
