No,more a laptop thing. Print Scrn, like some other things, usually shares a key with something else which needs an additional key to be held down at the same time. |

Press CTRL and V at the same time when you have opened a new Paint or Word window.
But only after you have done the Print Screen button thing.

How on Earth do I make a screenshot appear in a word processing package? That makes no sense.
On a phone a screenshot appears in the Gallery. Easy.
Why are computers so complicated?

This should really be as simple as pressing the keyboard's screenshot button, then right clicking in the word processor and selecting paste from the menu.

It should be.
My suspicion is the key in question is knackered or user error.
I know my instructions are good, I use it to take screenshot of the forum every Friday!

It's taken five days for Burns to tell us No Paint even though it was in the initial instructions |
