ANSWER

Screen shots are useful in many ways.  For example, if you receive an error message, you may want to take a screen shot and send your support representative an exact copy of the error message. 

To take a screen shot and save it as a picture file: 

  1. Click the window you want to capture. 
  2. Press ALT+PRINT SCREEN by holding down the ALT key and then pressing the PRINT SCREEN key. 
    • The PRINT SCREEN key is located to the right of the Function keys on the upper right corner of your keyboard.  (Depending on the type of keyboard you have, the exact key names on your keyboard may vary slightly.) 
    • Note: You can take a screen shot of your entire desktop rather than just a single window by pressing the PRINT SCREEN key without holding down the ALT key. 
  3. Click “Start,” then “Accessories,” and then click “Paint.”
    • For Windows 10: Click the “Windows Start” icon, and scroll down to “Windows Accessories,” then select “Paint.”
  4. In the Paint window, click “Edit,” and then click “Paste.” 
  5. When the image appears in the “Paint” window, click “File,” and then click “Save As.” 
  6. Enter in a name for the file and then click “Save.” 

You can now print or e-mail the saved screen shot just like you would any other picture.
