HP ENVY 17.3 inch Laptop PC 17-ch0000 (23T01AV)

I am new to using a Hewlett Packard laptop (HP ENVY i7).  Gradually working out most bits and pieces but I cannot understand how to get a basic "Screen Capture" of either txt  or graphics.  

 

How do I do it, and if it works where is the image stored for  later use?

 

Thanks

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, 

Let's try these steps to resolve the issue: 

  • Shift + Windows logo key + S brings up the Snipping Tool.
  • As soon as you take the screenshot, a thumbnail of the screen will pop up.
  • Bring up the full Snipping Tool to delay the screenshot or tweak the settings.
  • Go into the Windows 11 settings to assign the Snipping Tool to the Print screen button.

Method 2:

  • Press the Print Screen key on your keyboard, or press Windows Key + Shift + S. 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
