Is there an easier way? I just want a specific warning message I see, not the window, not a video, just a screen capture.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><\/font><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dave&#8217;s Answer:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There are a bunch of different ways to capture what&#8217;s on your screen and\/or a specific window on the screen, and you&#8217;re right that the easiest is probably print screen (usually a function key labelled &#8220;PRT SCRN&#8221; or &#8220;PRT SCR&#8221;, as you suggest). Problem is, what it does is copy what&#8217;s on the screen to the copy\/paste buffer, so if you&#8217;re hoping that you&#8217;ll push the button and have a file you can easily attach to an email for your brother, well, not so much.<\/p>\n<p>What you can do if you want to work with print screen, however, is to push the function key to capture the screen in the buffer, then launch the &#8220;Paint&#8221; program and immediately choose Edit &#8211;> Paste. Now you&#8217;ll see your image and can use &#8220;Save As&#8230;&#8221; to create a file.<\/p>\n<p>But there&#8217;s a smarter way, a way that&#8217;s more slick and easier both, and it&#8217;s a little utility included with Windows called Snipping Tool. Let me show you&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>First off, you can launch the program by just typing in the first few letters of its name into the Start menu, rather than having to find it in your system, often an alarmingly difficult task. Before you type it in, here&#8217;s what you&#8217;ll see:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.askdavetaylor.com\/8-blog-pics\/win7-screen-capture-snippet-1.png\" alt=\"windows 7 screen capture\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.askdavetaylor.com\/win7_windows_7_capture_screen_info_windows.html\" target=\"_blank\">Article Continued Here<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><i><font SIZE=\"2\"><\/p>\n<p>This post is excerpted with permission from Dave Taylor.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:www.askdavetaylor.com\">Sign up for Dave&#8217;s emails<\/a> about free tech support and special offers on books, seminars, workshops and more.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/font><\/p>\n<p><BR CLEAR=LEFT><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/techtalk.pcpitstop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/snippingtool1.jpg\" alt=\"windows7snippingtool\" title=\"windows7snippingtool\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-32226\" \/><\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a smarter way to capture screen shots &#8211; a way that&#8217;s more slick and easier, and it&#8217;s a little utility included with Windows called Snipping Tool.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":31,"featured_media":66012,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[799],"tags":[17,18,4111],"class_list":["post-32221","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ask-dave-taylor","tag-microsoft-windows-7","tag-windows-7","tag-windows-7-snipping-tool"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
