Microsoft is simplifying the process in Windows 11 with a new Snipping Tool app. The new tool combines the best features from the previous screenshot apps (more on that below), giving you the ability to quickly take a screenshot with a simple keyboard shortcut, then make edits, write annotations, and save it to your system.
Want an even easier way to open the Snipping Tool? Windows 10 has the option to set the Print Screen (prt sc) as your Snipping Tool launcher. We're hoping for something similar in Windows 11 so keep an eye out for this accessibility tool when the new OS launches later this year.
Take a Windows 11 screenshot using Print Screen
Another way to take a screenshot of your entire window is by using the Print Screen (Prt sc, PrtSc, PrtScn, PrntScrn) key.
To take a screenshot of the entire window, press the Windows key and Print Screen simultaneously. This will grab every window you have open, even those on secondary displays. You can find the screenshot saved in your PC>Pictures>Screenshots.
If you only want to take a screenshot of an open app, press the Windows key, ALT and Print Screen. This will save a screenshot to PC>Videos>Captures.
