Since the creator update, some users have declared on the forum that the Windows + Shift + S hotkey of OneNote 2016 (Windows + S in earlier versions) does not work in win 10. Windows + Shift + S is now the default hotkey for the screenshot tool. Therefore, there is a keyboard shortcut conflict between Snipping Tool and OneNote. Here are some solutions for fixing OneNote hotkeys to open the selection location in the OneNote window for screen clipping.

Resolved: screenshot tool shortcuts will not work properly

1. Change OneNote hotkey

Some users fixed OneNote 2016 hotkeys for screen clipping by changing keyboard shortcuts. OneNote does not contain any built-in options for customizing hotkeys. Therefore, you need to modify its hotkeys using the Registry Editor, as shown below.

Press Windows + R hotkey to open and run.

Enter regedit for run, and then click OK to open the Registry Editor.

-- then open this item in Registry Editor:

HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftOffice16.0OneNoteOptionsOther .

Select other, and then right-click the blank area on the right side of the Registry Editor window to open the context menu. Select New > DWORD (32-bit) Value to set the new DWORD.

Then enter "ScreenClippingShortcutKey" as the title of the new keyword.

Double-click ScreenClippingShortcutKey to open the Edit DWORD window.

Then enter "* *" in the numeric data text box to change the hotkey of the OneNote 2016 editing tool to Win + Shift + Z.

Press the OK button to close the window.

Then close Registry Editor and restart your laptop or desktop.

two。 Disable global hotkeys

Alternatively, you can disable the global Windows + S hotkey so that the screenshot tool does not open when you press the win + Shift + S keyboard shortcut. Windows does not include the option to customize its default keyboard shortcuts. However, you can use Registry Editor to disable Windows + S global keyboard shortcuts, as shown below.

Enter "regedit" in run to open the Registry Editor.

Then browse to this registry key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionExplorerAdvanced.

-- right-click Advanced and select New > string value

Enter DisabledHotkeys as the title of the new string value.

Double-click DisabledHotkeys to open the Edit string window.

Enter "S" in the Edit string window, and then click OK to close the window.

Close Registry Editor now, and then click restart to restart Windows.

3. Capture screenshots using the system tray icon of OneNote

OneNote 2016 users can take screenshots without pressing the Windows + Shift + S hotkey. Instead, you can configure the application to take a snapshot when its system tray icon is clicked. This is the way to take a snapshot using the OneNote system tray icon.

Right-click the OneNote system tray icon to open its context menu. Note that you may need to click the up arrow in the notification area to right-click the icon.

Select the "get screen cut" option in the context menu.

-- you can then select the area to capture in the snapshot and open the Select location window in OneNote.

After that, you can click the OneNote system tray icon to take a snapshot, and then open Select location in the OneNote window.

-if you cannot find the system tray icon for OneNote, right-click the win 10 taskbar and select the taskbar settings option. Cick selects the icon displayed on the taskbar to open the list of icons, as shown below. Toggle the send to OneNote tool icon to include it in the system tray.

This is why you can fix the OneNote hotkey to make screen clips and take snapshots without it. Instead of pasting them into your notebook using the Ctrl + V hotkey, you can then select the OneNote location to save the snapshots.
