Windows 10: windows 10 screen snip using Print Screen

The senior residence where I live just got 3 new Dell all-in-one computers with Windows 10. I am having difficulty getting Screen Snip to work using Print Screen on the keyboard. I went into Settings and made the adjustment under Keyboard. Onr thing that I notice - I see that the key on the keyboard for Print Screen has a dual function and Print Screen is written in blue. Does that have something to do with the problem?

I am not sure of the model name, but it is an all-in-one.

Windows 10 Snipping Tool on Windows 7

All it is is one extra step beyond what is native to windows 10. Yes, technically it would be easier to have the functionality of print built in to the Windows 7 version, but you just have to save it ,and right click on it ,and print.

As far as getting the windows 10 version into windows7. I know there was a way to get the old winpaint, so maybe there's a way to get the snipping tool into 10, I don't know.

im curious if i could compress, and upload the application to this post? 7zip doesnt seem to be allowed

 

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

how to get an image of the entire screen (Print Screen)

Windows 10

I've tried windows key+Print Screen and alt+Print Screen and then Paste into Irfanview (a program that processes .png .jpg etc.) Apparently nothing is getting copied to the clipboard by Print Screen.

I normally use the snipping tool to capture screen shots. But in this case, the portion of the screen that I need to capture is a drop-down list that disappears when I bring up the snipping tool.

Thanks.
