Just click on start, then in the search box type "Snipping Tool", as you start to type it should list the Snipping Tool program, click on that to open,

JustGinnie it is used for copying parts of your screen.

I've put a guide on the other thread as well as instructions for how to create a shortcut to it on your desktop.
