What’s the Easiest Way to Learn How to Screenshot on Dell Laptops?

[Rolf]

I recently switched to a Dell laptop and want to know how to screenshot on dell devices properly. Are there built-in keyboard shortcuts, or do I need additional software for full-screen and partial screenshots?

You don’t need extra software at all. Windows shortcuts work perfectly on Dell laptops. The PrtSc key captures the whole screen, while Win + Shift + S is great for partial screenshots.

I was confused too at first. Turns out Dell doesn’t have special screenshot keys Windows handles everything. Once you learn two shortcuts, it becomes second nature.

Most Dell laptops rely entirely on Windows screenshot functionality. The Snipping Tool and Snip & Sketch are optimized and consume minimal resources, making them ideal.

Congrats, you’ve unlocked the “Where is the PrtSc key?” phase of laptop ownership. Took me longer than I’d like to admit to find it

I’ve used Dell laptops for years. Win + PrtSc automatically saves screenshots, which is super useful if you take a lot of them.

Good news: Dell didn’t reinvent screenshots. Bad news: you still have to remember the shortcuts like everyone else.

No extra apps needed. Just use Windows shortcuts.

If you want advanced options like delayed screenshots or annotations, the built-in Snipping Tool is more than enough for most users.

Honestly, third-party tools are overkill unless you’re doing tutorials or guides. Windows already does the job well.
