There are lots of options available when you want to capture a picture of your entire computer screen. Some of these options are costly (third-party screen capture programs), others are free and built into Windows, which means there’s no additional software to install. The easiest way to take a screenshot is to use Windows’ print screen feature. This functionality is built into all versions of Windows, including older releases. To capture a screenshot using the print screen function, follow these steps: 1) Arrange the elements on your screen the way you want them,. 2) Press the print Screen (or Prt Sc) key on your computer keyboard. This places an image of the entire screen into Windows’ clipboard. You can then paste the image into any application, such as Microsoft Word. (To paste the captured image, press Ctrl+V). You can also use this method to capture a shot of a single open window on your desktop. Just select the window to make it the active window, then press Alt+Print Screen. You can then paste the image of this window into another application. Also Able Softwares are very useful to take the screenshot. Graphicregion www.graphicregion.com
