Windows 10: Print Screen pastes black rectangular box into MS Paint

Lately, when i am trying to take a screen shot on PC Win10, and paste it into MS Paint, I am getting a black screen pasted instead of the actual image. Any idea how to resolve it ? Thank you

:)

 

How to get print screens on Win 10 without (black) borders in MS paint?

Whenever I make a print screen from the actual window with Alt + PrtScn in Windows 10 and then paste it into MS paint, I get a black border around the picture.

What is the easiest way to get a borderless picture?
Can I change some settings? Or do I have to cut out the picture manually every time?

This question is not about printing a picture borderless, it's about saving a picture without black borders.

 

Print Screen, black screen appears  

See previous comments - "Print Screen" and the Snip Tool" works on screens that are not from the Internet!!!
Again, click on Print Screen (of my desktop), go to Paint, open a new screen, Paste an image of my desktop (captured from Print Screen).. and also I can use the snap tool (of an area within the paint screen). That is, the Pasted image does show my desktop and icons... and I can use the snap tool... (and no black screen from the above steps).
