Print Screen key doesn't work on my Windows 11

I got back to the old print screen button functionality by changing the print screen button behaviour in settings:
Open the "Settings" app from the Start Menu
Go to Settings>Accessibility>Keyboard

Scroll down to "Use Print screen key to open screen capture" and change the slider switch to "Off"

It looks like with Win 11, Microsoft have created a new app called "screen capture" which gives some extra choices, and automatically saves the capture in a screenshots folder, but the extra interface causes problems for some people's workflows. Switching it off returns my Win 11 to the old behaviour of copying the whole screen to clipboard (from which you then have to paste and save manually yourself.)

Thank you, that's really helpful. And do you happen to know how to make the screenshot of one screen only, when I have multiple screens connected?

Thanks so much.

Thanks Paul. Yes Function+Windows+PrintScreen works on my brand new, straight out of the box PC. And better yet, those Screen Shots automatically go to the Screenshots folder in Pictures on my computer, which is the long standing default location, as far as I know. Also, the Windows+Shift+S combinaton sends screen shots to the same Screenshots folder, but it's a more complicated option with several different choices. I was looking for the simplest way to get a Screenshot of the whole screen, and your option does do that. Though it would really be nice if the Print Screen button actually got that done with one click, the way it used to do at some point in time. wouldn't it? lol.

Function + Windows+Print Screen

Screen shots go to Home File Explorer
