I need to grab a quick image of a specific window for a tutorial I'm writing. Can someone explain how to screen shot a dell laptop using the Snipping Tool or the Print Screen key?
 
To take a screenshot on a Dell laptop, press PrtScn to capture the entire screen. For only the active window, press Alt + PrtScn. The image copies to the clipboard, which you can paste into Paint or Word. On Windows 10/11, press Windows + Shift + S to open Snip & Sketch for custom screenshots.
 
To take a screenshot on a Dell laptop (Windows), press the PrtScn (Print Screen) key to capture the entire screen this copies the image to the clipboard, and you can paste it into apps like Microsoft Paint or Microsoft Word using Ctrl + V. To automatically save the screenshot as a file, press Windows + PrtScn, and it will be saved in the Pictures > Screenshots folder. For selecting a specific area, press Windows + Shift + S to open the Snipping Tool, then choose the portion of the screen you want to capture.
