Snipping Tool

I have Windows 11 Home.  I've been using Snipping Tool since Windows 10 came out and it had been working very well with Windows 11 since I installed it when it first came out.  All of a sudden, this week, it stopped working for some unknown reason so I uninstalled the app and tried to download a new .exe Snipping Tool file from Microsoft but it wouldn't download.  I waited and waited but it kept telling me that it was still downloading.  After about 15 minutes, I stopped it because I knew that it shouldn't take anywhere near that long to download.

I ran several anti-malware programs, an online scanner, and MS Malicious Software Removal Tool and they all found 0 infected files.

Is there anything that I can try to get the Snipping Tool to download and install?
