Screenshots How to Take them

I have until recently been puzzled by the key on the keyboard labelled “ Print Scrn”

It never seemed to work for me

I decided that enough was enough and set about finding how to make this function work

Would you believe it has always worked but it is hidden

Now why no one ever told me I will not know

So I will tell you.

No, you don’t need a camera or to say ʺCheese!ʺ

Nor do you need any of the ancillary programs for sale

( That is if you want a simple picture )

This works for any version of Windows and a keyboard. To take a screen shot of whatever is displayed on your monitor, such as an image of your desktop, simply press the “Print Screen “ button, which is sometimes labelled as “PrtScn”.

Click image to expand.

Once you press the ‘Print Screen’ button, you’ll notice that nothing happens.

This is normal.

Now launch any Image Editor you like, such as Microsoft Paint or Photodrw.exe,

Select “Edit” from the file menu

Then select “Paste” ( Or you can press Ctrl+ v ).

You will now see the screen shot which you have taken ( Fantastic it works !)

You can now save the image by clicking on “File” > “Save As”. Now why did nobody tell me about this before ?
