I did uninstall the old deprecated snipping tool from windows 11. But now I see "snip & sketch" is uninstalled too!
I removed it via right-clicking on the snipping tool in the start and pressing "uninstall".
I don't know how can I reinstall it! I searched in the Microsoft store but I didn't find it. When I search "Snip & Sketch" or "Snip and Sketch" it won't show up.

(A) Using the Store: Go to the Microsoft Store and type:
Snip and Sketch
Snip 'n Sketch comes up and you can install it.
Should work just fine
(B) Power Shell: You can also try Powershell
Installl Snipping tool with Powwshell
You could use the following command to reinstall using PowerShell, if you know package name:
If for some reason the Snipping Tool isn’t already available on your Windows 11 device, you can easily install it using PowerShell with just one line command. Follow the steps outlined below:
Ensure that your PowerShell window, which you opened in administrator mode, is active. To install the Snipping Tool, type in the following command
Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers Microsoft.ScreenSketch | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
This command checks for the Snipping Tool package (known as Microsoft.ScreenSketch in Windows 11) across all user accounts and registers it if not already done.
Wait for the command to execute completely. Depending on your system’s speed and current workload, it might take a few moments. Once completed, verify the installation. You can do this by navigating to the Start Menu and typing “Snipping Tool” or “Screen Sketch”. The app should appear in the search results, indicating a successful installation and it’s ready for use.
