How to take screenshots of desktop and laptop computers
1. Windows Logo + Print Screen (PrtSc)
To take a screenshot in Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10, press Windows Logo+Print Screen (PrtSc) simultaneously on your computer keyboard.
You will immediately see the screen flashing for a moment. This is a sign that the screenshot has been taken.
Windows 7 users can take screenshots in the following way.
2. Print the screen
Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 users can use this method. Press the Print Screen button.
After pressing this button, you take a screenshot, but it is stored in RAM. So you take it and copy the screenshot.
In order to view it, you have to paste the screenshot wherever you want, like Microsoft Word or Paint or whatever.
3. Alt + print screen
The method is the same as before. Press Alt+Print Screen and paste the captured screenshot. However, this method only takes a screenshot of the active window. You can't take screenshots of the taskbar and stuff.
4. Knife
Windows has a built-in application called Snipping Tool. This program is useful for taking screenshots and annotating them.
To find this program, search for Cortana in Windows 10 (read our tutorial on using Cortana) or open Start and type "snipping tool".
5. PikPick
You can also take screenshots using the best application, PicPick. PicPick introduces all the features to make it easier for users to take screenshots on PC.
PicPick looks similar to Paint but has a lot more features.
PicPick allows us to take screenshots on different types of screens. PicPick has its own screenshot editor. You can also add a watermark to the screenshots you take.
