Click on the button so it is not highlighted anymore.

So, when I did one of the more recent Windows updates, it removed options? Swell.
How /where did you access that Capture drop-down menu? When I open the Snipping Tool, I see:

Try opening snip tool with Windows key + Shift + S and see if it is there.
I have Windows set to open snip tool when I press Print Screen and that is what I normally use to open snip tool.

Not on my system. The quick markup was not highlighted and I still was being prompted to "capture." When I enabled quick markup, the capture window had more options, but when I disabled quick markup I still get (just) the capture button.

Aha. My system also brings up the Snipping Tool using the <PrtSc key>. AND... it automatically saves without prompting.
If I access Snipping Tool via <shitt+winkey+s> or via Search "Snipping tool", I get the annoying prompt to capture.
Guess it's time to teach this old dog a new trick: Use PrtSc for screen grabs.
Thanks!
