The screenshot function of the screenshot tool has been launched to the Win11 development channel, and the recording area can be selected.

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen Terrence for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com, December 9, according to Microsoft's official website, Microsoft today began to release a new version 11.2211.35.0 for Windows 11 screenshot tool Snipping Tool application, which is available to Windows Insider in the development channel. Since it has just been launched, not all users of the development channel will receive the update immediately.

The most important thing about the Snipping Tool update is the introduction of a built-in screencap feature, which previously required the help of Xbox Game Bar or third-party tools.

To start screenshots, update the Snipping Tool app from the Windows 11 Microsoft Store, and then simply open the Snipping Tool app and click on the new screenshot.

Before starting screen recording, users will be able to select the part of the screen that they want to record. When you are finished, you can preview it before saving or sharing it with others.

Microsoft said that because this is an early test version of the app, there are several known problems with the feature, and some users may have a slight delay between clicking "start" and actually starting screencap.

CTOnews.com learned that when the functional test is complete, it should be released to everyone as a regular application update or as part of the Windows 11 feature update, which usually takes weeks or months.
