Dear,

It is much easy to get snapshot of your opened window.

When you open the application, then you have to press a specific key on keyboard.

Suppose you have to capture your desktop.

Press Print Screen key on keyboard and then open Microsoft Paint.

Now click on edit and choose paste or press CTRL+V.

You captured image will be pasted here.

You can use this snap as you want.

I hope you are understood now.

Thanks

If you are using Windows, taking screenshots is quite easy to do. Here is the step-by-step procedure on how doing this.

Step 1: First, you must open the application you want to take screenshots.

Step 2: On the top-right side of your keyboard, press this key ‘PrtScr/SysRq’

Step 3: Open the ‘Paint’. To do this, click Start > Program > Accessories > Paint

Step 4: Upon opening, you’ll now be seeing a blank white screen inside the ‘Paint’. On your keyboard, Press  ‘Ctrl + V’.

Step 5: Your captured screenshot will now be pasted on the blank white screen inside the ‘Paint’. You can edit the pasted screenshot any way you want, or just save it directly to your computer by pressing ‘Ctrl + S’. Choose your desired file name and destination folder, and you’re done! Repeat Steps 1 to 5 in case you have to make more screenshot.

You can also try using Gadwin PrintScreen Professional in taking screenshots and printscreens. It’s free for download here and very easy to use!
