This article explains all the different ways to take screenshots in Windows 11.

There are many ways to take screenshots in Windows 11, the most basic of which is to press the PrtScn (also known as PrtSc) button on your keyboard. This will capture the entire screen, including multiple monitors if you have them, plus all visible windows, the taskbar, Start button, etc. You can then paste the screenshot into any program that supports image paste.

There are several better ways to take a screenshot, however, depending on what you're capturing and how you want to save it. Most methods require you to memorize keyboard shortcuts, but there's also a tool built into Windows 11 to help you take screenshots.

This method is super handy if you take a lot of screenshots. Hold down the Windows key and then press the PrtSc key on your keyboard.
