    Printscreen/ screenshot?

    This functionality isnt available on WP7 yet. We will have to look forward to 'Mango' and see if that update brings us anything.

    There is no API as of now that developers can use in their apps for screen capture..

    Saving a printscreen

    Your pics should be saved in C:\Users\[YOUR USERNAME]\Pictures\Screenshots.

    When you press WIN+PrtSc, you should see the screen blink. If not, then you may be running an older instance of Windows 10 that does not support this feature yet. I am on this build:

    UPDATE:
    It is also possible that PrnSc is tied to same button as your multimedia function keys. In this case you need to press WIN+FN+PrnSc
