How To Take Screenshot On Windows 11

Taking a screenshot on Windows 11 is easy! You can use several methods depending on your needs. Here are the most common ways:

1. Capture the Entire Screen (Print Screen Key)

  • Press the PrtScn (Print Screen) key on your keyboard.

    • This saves a screenshot of your entire screen to the clipboard.

    • Open an app like Paint, Word, or Photoshop and press Ctrl + V to paste it.

2. Save Screenshot Directly to File (Windows + Print Screen)

  • Press Windows + PrtScn.

    • The screen will dim briefly, and the screenshot will be saved automatically in:

      • This PC > Pictures > Screenshots

3. Capture the Active Window (Alt + Print Screen)

  • Press Alt + PrtScn.

    • This captures only the active window and copies it to the clipboard.

    • Paste it into an image editor (Ctrl + V).

4. Use Snipping Tool (More Control)

  • Press Windows + Shift + S or search for "Snipping Tool" in the Start menu.

    • Choose a snip type:

      • Rectangular Snip (drag to select an area)

      • Freeform Snip (draw any shape)

      • Window Snip (select a window)

      • Fullscreen Snip (capture everything)

    • The screenshot is copied to the clipboard and can be edited in the Snipping Tool app.

5. Use Game Bar (Windows + G)

  • Press Windows + G to open the Xbox Game Bar.

    • Click the Camera icon or press Windows + Alt + PrtScn.

    • Screenshots are saved in:

      • This PC > Videos > Captures

Bonus: Delay Screenshot (Snipping Tool Only)

  • Open the Snipping Tool.

    • Click the Timer icon (e.g., 3, 5, or 10 seconds delay).

    • Select the snip type and capture the screen after the delay.
