Windows 11
Hi everyone,
For the past few weeks, I've been having an annoying issue with the Snipping Tool on Windows 11. When I take a screenshot, the system notification pops up, but it only contains text, without the visual thumbnail preview of the crop like it used to.
I have checked all notification settings (everything is turned on). I've also tried repairing, resetting, and even fully uninstalling and reinstalling the Snipping Tool from the Microsoft Store. I even rolled back some settings to default, but nothing helped.
Is this a known bug from a recent Windows 11 update? Do any of you experience the same thing?
I'm attaching two screenshots: the first one shows how it looked a few weeks ago (with the preview), and the second one shows how it looks right now (just text).
Any help or workarounds would be highly appreciated. Thanks!
