It has been working for a long time. Ever since there's been update. Updates were automatically. It messed up the application. How do I make my printscreen button to work again?

    My right-click list says "Take screenshot". I paste mine into the Paint app. Then I can trim it to what I want and save it as a jpeg.

    WIn+Shift+S which was so useful in WIndows 10 won't work anymore. Everything just minimizes...

    All the other ways also don't work - it won't save anything into Screenshot folder, won't open screen capture feature, nothing.

    So annoying.

    Ok. This is maybe a good solution that might work for others. I "right-click" in the screen and select "screen shot." That gives me the selection tool.

    Problem Solved!

    I hope this helps other people.

    Share a screenshot.

    I've never had that option on a windows PC ever (on the right-click). Not even if I show more options.

    Sounds like some other software has installed that option into that menu.
