          Why ALT?:confused: For me it has always worked without. Is it an US thing?

          M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

            Using ALT makes it just capture only the current window rather than the entire screen.

                              I tell you what, I love SnagIt because its editor gets it right when it comes to annotating a screenshot after capture. Plus, for me, I can drag and drop out of the preview window into an email without saving the picture for those quick notes. Saves me clutter in my saved folders. The video capture is pretty nice as well. As for free software, a lot of other users where I work have/had PrintKey 2000[^] installed. Not sure how up to date it is.

                                  Wow. I just read through this thread. I didn’t know there were so many ways to do that. I’ve just been using my phone to take a picture. :)

                                        Greenshot is the best IMO. And it's free. Greenshot for Windows Very versatile so you can configure it to suit your workflow and preferences.

                                          Greenshot is good but lately I've just been using the built in screenshot capabilities of Windows 10 or 11. For creating animated GIFs I use ScreenToGif.
