Windows 10: I want to go back to fn Print Screen without using stupid Snip Tool. It used to be so easy.

How do I return to Fn Print Screen to save my shots in Screenshots? This Snip Tool is nonsense.

Screen Capture software

Hi,

Upon checking on your concern, we have found a suggestion that may help you take a screenshot of the dropdown menu using the Snipping tool. Please follow the steps below:

• Launch Snipping tool.
• Right-click the menu you wish to take a screenshot.
• Press CTRL + Fn+ Print Scrn.
• Once you've already taken the print screen of the menu, you may try using the snipping tool and check if it will be able to capture the drop down menu.

Let us know how it goes.

 

Snipping Tool will no longer allow me to perform a Control Print Screen command to snip a menu.

Hi Leigh,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft community.

Are you trying pressing Print Screen button and then snip?

If you are trying to press print button and snip ,And if it is not working then I suggest you to check with
on screen Keyboard. Please provide us the steps you have performed so that we can assist in a better way.

 

Since loading Windows 10 I have not been able to print landscape from capture.png (where I print my snipping tool pictures). Can anyone help?

Hi Jordanaz,

I will certainly help you with the issue you are experiencing in printing the captured images using snipping tool.

This issue might occur, if there is changes made to the settings in snipping tool.

Before proceeding further, I would like to ask few questions:

• 
  Do you get any error message while printing images?
  
• 
  How are you trying to print the image?
  

Please refer below mentioned steps to print image in Landscape using snipping tool:

• 
  To open Snipping Tool, select the Start
  button, type Snipping Tool, and then select it in the search results. (There's no keyboard shortcut available.)
  
• 
  To take a screenshot, select New,
  and then select the part of the screen that you want to capture.
  
• 
  To print, click on File, Go to
  Print->Preferences->change to Landscape (in dropdown menu) and click
  ok.
