I had disabled snipping tool but not by unchecking Tablets option.
Do you have any other re-enabling method?

I have “Windows 7 Starter.” Is it not on my computer? Your tutorial is awesome but I don’t have a folder for “tablet PC Option Components.”

You might also try JING. It’s free and works quite well.

I did some digging and it looks like Windows 7 Starter doesn’t have the Snipping Tool. I guess that is why it is “Starter Edition” a lot of little features like that are left out.

But there are third party apps you can use. Some people told me they use a tool called Snippy — but it hasn’t been updated in a long time.

Hi Steve

Thanks for your quick reply.
I installed Vista in 2008 June. I know it is not the latest. I am trying to do some ‘printscreen’ shots for my shots. Students recommended the ‘snipping tool’. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks & regards

Dai

Hi @dai — So you don’t have the box to check in Step 3?

Are you running the latest Vista service-pack?

I followed your step by step instructions. Upto ‘Turn windows features on or off’ it was perfect. I haven’t got ‘tablet pc optional components’. So, I am stuck. Thanks for your help and support. What can I do next??

Hi Nikky… sorry about that :) You know what is weird tho, at work it was DISABLED by default on my PC and everyone around me. I think IT did that to freak us all out. who knows.

Good feedback however. I’ll update the article to say (FYI – go test it first, might already be on).

I should have read the article first before going off and trying to enable it when it was already enabled. Good thing its extremly easy and quick then to check out.
