    Can i change keyboard shortcuts?


    Hi,

    I'm using a lot the `alt + prtcn` shortcut to take a screenshot of just the activate window.

    I do this a lot and it's getting annoying, can I change that somehow? just prtcn would be the best, but I can compromise on different combo also if that's possible.

    I need the window print specifically, not the whole screen.

    I have a list of win10 keyboard shortcuts but some do not do as suggested. For example : F2 doesn't allow me to change the name of the item - but F4 does. I got the list from Windows 10 website ; https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/help/12445
