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.
