We all need to take a screenshot at some point, but we don’t always know how. There are several ways to take a screenshot in Windows 11. Here, we explain three step-by-step methods.

Method 1: Use the Print Screen key (PrtSc)

The simplest and most common way to take a screenshot in Windows 11 is to use the “Print Screen” (or “PrtSc”) key on your keyboard. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Press the Print Screen key (PrtSc) on your keyboard. The screenshot will be copied to the clipboard.
  2. Open an image-editing program, such as Paint or Photoshop.
  3. Press Ctrl+V to paste the captured image.
  4. Save the image on your computer, choosing a format (JPEG, PNG, etc.) and location.

Step 1: Press the “Esc” key on your keyboard
Step 2: Your screenshot is automatically saved in the “Screenshots” section of your PC
This method is the quickest to execute, but you won’t be able to choose a precise area to capture.

Method 2: Use the Snipping Tool

Windows 11 includes a built-in tool called “Snipping Tool” that lets you capture specific parts of your screen. Here’s how to use it:

  1. Press the Windows key and type “Capture Tool” in the search bar.
  2. Click on the Capture Tool application to open it.
  3. Choose one of the available screen capture options: rectangle, freeform, window or full screen.
  4. Use your mouse to select the area you wish to capture.
  5. Save the image by clicking on the “Save” button and choosing a location and format.

Step 1: Type “Capture Tool” in the WIndows 11 search bar, then click on the software
Step 2: After selecting your capture mode and capturing the desired area of your screen, save your image via the “save as” function
This is a very useful tool if you want to capture a particular area of your screen.

Method 3: Use Windows keys + Shift + S

Windows 11 also lets you take a screenshot quickly using a combination of keys. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Simultaneously press Windows + Shift + S on your keyboard.
  2. The capture area will appear and your screen will become slightly darker.
  3. Use your mouse to select the area you wish to capture.
  4. The image will be automatically copied to the clipboard.
  5. Paste the image into an image-editing program and save it.

Step 1: Simultaneously press the “Windows+Shift+S” keys
Step 2: Next, your screen will look like this: modulate the area you want to capture
Step 3: The screenshot will be automatically saved in the “Screenshot” section of your PC
This method is less well-known, but just as effective as the others.

Conclusion

By following these methods and tips, you’ll be able to take a screenshot in Windows 11 quickly and easily. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages, but the one that suits you best will be the right one in every case.
