💻 How to Screenshot on Laptop or PC with Windows

In this step-by-step tutorial, learn how to take a screenshot on Windows 11, whether you're using a desktop or laptop. We start by learning how to screenshot on PC by using keyboard shortcuts, like Print Screen, ALT + Print Screen, Windows + Print Screen, and more. Next, we look at how to add multiple screenshots to your clipboard, so you can choose which screenshot to paste. We follow this by looking at in built tools that let you screenshot on Windows, including the Snipping Tool, Microsoft Edge, and Office apps. We finish with the ultimate screen shot tool, ShareX, which is completely free to install. With ShareX, you can screenshot the full screen, a window, or just a region. You can also capture a scrolling screenshot or even an OCR screenshot. ShareX also offers powerful annotation tools.

⌨️ SHORTCUT KEYS
- Print Screen: takes screenshot of the entire desktop, including multiple monitors

Fun intro! Actually have seen a number of people share screenshots as photos taken on mobiles. So this is a very helpful tutorial :)

Kevin, thanks for all the great content you share with us. I hope you feel appreciated. As some have already commented, your delivery, humor and production quality are outstanding!

The way of Kevin is great! I also know another way to take screenshots, guys: Press Windows button + G, then many symbols appear and find out the symbol "Camera" and click on it to take a screenshot. The default folder is located in Videos/Captures.

I have been using GreenShot for the past 6 years because it have various of these features, but I’m going to test ShareX. I liked ShareX automatically apply the effects. Thanks for sharing, Kevin!

I used to work at a help desk. One user would sometimes take a photo of the screen with his phone, email it to himself, print the email with the picture on a black & white printer, then bring the printout to the help desk. Oh, and his office was just 30 seconds down the hall. Gotta love help desk stories!

Thank you so much for your contribution to education.Some of us older chaps have come to technology later in life, and your videos make a fairly difficult topic understandable, adding a humorous tone to your teaching helps with the learning.thank you again young man. Greetings from🇬🇧

LOL, I was scratching my head at the intro. I thought, are you kidding me? This is only the second video of yours that I've watched so maybe humor is common, idk. I just watched the one on how to turn on dark mode. So far I have learned a lot of very useful information, and the description section is fantastic.
