Windows 10: Take Screenshot in Windows 10

Sorry for the late reply @Clint.

I have created a shortcut in the tutorial below that still works in Windows 10 that you might see if may work for you. It basically just simulates the keystrokes to create a screenshot.

Screenshot Shortcut - Create in Windows 8

 

Thanks so much Brink. That worked. I have no idea why the print screen key don't work. I pined the shortcut to my task bar and it works great. Thanks again.

 

You're most welcome Clint. I'm glad it worked for you. *Smile

 

Brink, just FYI on my print Screen key. My Dell is only 3 weeks old, so I called Dell today to see why my key don't wok. They have redesigned it, so you have to press the Fn key then Print Screen key, then open Paint select the rectangular selection. Then make a box, put curser in box and right click and select paste. Then save to what ever folder. That's too much work for me. Thank you so much for the shortcut. That works a lot faster.

 

Wow, I wonder why Dell did that. *Confused

 

The supervisor told me that it was conflicting with some business that had to print something different. It didn't make any sense to me. He said all the manufactures were going the same way.

 

I tried to find the "Performance Options" so I can make the screen flash, but there is no such thing on my pc. I went into the Control Panel and did a search there, but no luck. Any other suggestions for screenshots to pictures?

Check using the tutorial below to see if it may help to open your Visual Effects settings.

hello. thank you for all of your useful and high quality tutorials. i really enjoy reading them.

because i used a lot snipping tools in windows 7, now in windows 10 i have a problem.
in windows 7 when i click on snipping tools icon (in first launch) it automatically launch "New" button. but in windows 10 i should click on "New" button in first launch every time.
can it be like before?

 

Hello Alireza,

I'm not aware of a way to have Snipping Tool automatically open with New. *Sad

 

thanks for reply. i hope that they add this option in future.
