Are some of the needy tools from your Vista or 7 machine missing, then here is a trick to bring them back to working. This is called Windows Features – Turn Windows features on or off.
To turn a feature off in earlier versions of Windows, you had to uninstall it completely from your computer. In this version of Windows, the features remain stored on your hard disk so you can turn them back on if you want to. Turning off a feature does not uninstall the feature, and it does not reduce the amount of hard disk space used by Windows features.
First, open your Start Menu and type in programs and features.
Then choose “Turn Windows Features on or Off” from the side Menu.
You probably least expected this, but snipping tool falls under the Tablet PC Optional Components category.
Tablet PC Input Panel, Windows Journal, Math Input Panel, and other handwriting recognition features are all included within Tablet PC Components.
Check it again, press OK, and your Snipping Tool will come back.
Additionally, you can check more on Windows features on or off.
