Short codes are very important in technician worlds because it make word easier while some thinks short codes are tricks
The prtsc button on your your keyboard plays an important role when it comes to screenshot image or display on your computer , you can use this to get help troubleshooting a problem or to explain how to do somethings on windows just like my last articles or to save conversations and many more.
STEPS
locate the 'print screen' key on your keyboard. it is always located below the insert key.
the Print screen key may be tagged as:
Press Prtscr to take screenshot of the monitor. Pressing it will copy the display to the clipboard, so that you can paste it into your desire program such as paint
Note: No confirmation displayed when the capture is made
The dimension of the screenshot will be determine by the resolution of your PC
Press and hold fn key down and press prtscr
but this method copy all the whole screen
HOW TO SAVE YOUR SCREENSHOT
After using any of the option above, in order to edit or save it, you have to paste it into a program. I suggest you open a new file in paint and press ctrl + V to paste the screenshot
Now you can edit and costumise your screenshot to your taste
Cheers......

Now you can edit and costumise your screenshot to your taste
- When you are tough with your editing save it as a PNG or JPG image
- JPG images loose some quality when they are save while PNG retain their original quality but will result in small file
- You can also paste your screenshot on other programs like Words, corel and photoshop or email
- your mouse cursor will never appear on the screenshot
