To capture screenshots and automatically save them, press the Windows and Print Screen keys together. Once again, the screenshot is copied to your clipboard for you to paste.
In earlier versions of Windows, you can do the same thing with the Snipping Tool, which is found by clicking Start and typing “Snipping Tool” in the search bar. You can then click and drag to highlight the bit you want and let go to capture it. If you just want to capture a portion of the screen in Windows 10 try pressing the Windows, Shift, and S keys together. Your captured screenshot is copied to the clipboard automatically, and you must open Microsoft Paint, Photoshop, or whatever image software you use, to paste it, so you can edit and save it. If you only want to grab a screenshot of the active window, press the Alt and Print Screen keys together. To capture a screenshot on a Windows laptop or desktop computer, press the Print Screen keyboard key (usually abbreviated to Prt Scn or similar). Windows Snipping Tool Photograph: Simon Hill
