    My laptop lacks a Print Screen button


    My laptop lacks a Print Screen button, so I remapped F11 to serve that function. Now, I use Windows + F11 to take screenshots on Windows 10. Previously, using Windows + Print Screen would capture my entire screen and save it to a 'Screenshots' folder in 'Pictures'. However, my new setup only captures part of the screen. How can I fix this? I don't want to use the snipping tool

    :)

    No print button

    Thanks for your reply, but if you look up at the comments you'll see that, while I and another person share your frustration, it wasn't for lack of knowing the steps you list. It was that the print button, which seemed missing, was just off the screen at
    bottom. They need a redesign.

    No matter, though, as I've switched my default to the old Windows Photo Viewer they no longer use.

    Print Screen Button

    Hi All

    On my old laptops keyboard the Print Screen button was on the main keyboard and even when I changed how the F keys work in the Bios I had no problem as Prt Sc was the default action for that button.

    On my new laptop though I noticed that the Print Screen button now shares space with the END key but it's on the Calculator side of the keyboard. Problem is the default for this button is END rather then Print Screen. I have to use the FN button to use Print Screen.

    Is there any way to control the options for just this one button as I want to leave my F keys as the default as I use F Keys as hotkeys in some games but I really would like the Print Screen option to be the default for that key.

    So is there a way to reverse that one key or am I stuck with it being defaulted to END?

    If so how do I swap this one keys default?

    Thanks
    Dave

    I have an HP where you can swap the F functions but it all or none. Maybe someone can suggest a Print Screen shortcut or you can use a separate program like Lightshot or Snipping tool for cutouts. Good Luck
