harryjosh Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 (edited) Hi Everyone, I'm a Mac user and just got Windows and I need to take a screenshot and don't have any idea any help? I tried to print screen (Prt Scr) keys together to take a screenshot in Windows 10 but nothing happened.

Elley Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 What are you trying to do? The default Keybind should be the print Screen button. When i have to take a screenshot on my Windows 10 laptop, i use: Windows key + Shift + S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhubarb Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Print Screen just copies the screen dump to the clipboard. You need to open a graphics program (even the bundled 'Paint' app in W 10) and 'paste' it in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harryjosh Posted April 10, 2019 Author Share Posted April 10, 2019 In keyboards I do have a Print Screen button, but do I have to download the snipping tools for that?

So try Pres Alt + PrtSc to take a screenshot of only the highlighted application. Edited April 10, 2019 by harryjosh (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elley Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Snipping tool has been/is being replaced by snip and sketch. Assuming the 'Mac User' bit refers to familiarity, and it is indeed windows 10 we're talking about. If Onedrive is signed in you can configure it to automatically save a screenshot direct to a file when the print screen key is pressed. https://support.office.com/en-us/article/save-screenshots-to-onedrive-automatically-d04df71c-1cb0-4ad6-9f9c-b08494d79d6a https://techloris.com/take-a-screenshot-in-windows-10/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
