    PrtSc button

    Hello toplisek,

    I'm John an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you. I want to apologize if you encountered this issue. I understand you have a problem with PrtSc button not working. Did you made any changes recently? When was the last time it's working properly?

    Try these key combinations to check if they are working

    a. Ctrl + Windows key + PrtSc

    b. Ctrl + PrtSc

    c. Fn + PrtSc.

    Press Start then search Settings

    Select Ease of Access > Keyboard

    Scroll down and find the option > toggle on "Use the PrtScn button to open snipping"

    Please check this article if it helps

    I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any further concerns.

    Sincerely



    Independent Advisor
