If I'm writing a Confluence article, I'll often use Shift+Win+S, grab what I want, highlight a piece of the image with the editing tool, and then Ctrl+C it so I can paste it into my article. When I'm done, I then have a bunch of Snip & Sketch windows open.

How can I close all the Snip & Sketch windows without having to say Don't save on them individually, and without having to End Task on the process?

How can I close all the Snip & Sketch windows without having to say Don't save on them individually,

Natively in Windows you cannot. Too many people did not save their work that Microsoft has enforced Must Save before Exit.

You would see if you can write an Auto Hotkey script to do this.

I just have developed the habit to save and then exit. It saves time overall.

  • Thanks John. I may end up moving back to SnagIt instead. Commented Jun 20, 2022 at 16:41
  • SnagIt also requires you to Save if you must exit Snagit Editor. I use the latest version of Snagit myself.

A brute-force solution is to just terminate the entire Snip & Sketch application from Task Manager.

You can add snip and sketch to your windows taskbar, then hover/click over it and close all the individual open windows when they display their thumbnails.

  • That doesn't work, because each window displays a save & close dialog which doesn't come into focus. Commented Jun 8, 2023 at 7:29
