Windows 8.1 + OneNote – fix shortcut for screen clippings

With Windows 8.1 update, Microsoft added the new shortcut for Win + S to “search everywhere” (with bing, maybe we should call it: bing it).

In the past this screenshot was used by Microsoft Office OneNote to take screen clippings. Sometime it really takes lot’s of time to fix a bug like this …

But there is a workaround –> regedit for Win + A alternative

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\OneNote\Options\Other]
"ScreenCLippingShortcutKey"=dword:00000041

  1. You can also do Win+Shift+S or Win+Ctrl+S. One of them will work for ya :)
