Alt and Print Screen buttons

I use a free addon called PrintScreen from Gadwin, it can be configured to replace your normal printscreen button so that it automatically saves a copy of your screen (whole or current window) to a location of your choice. I have mine set to Desktop so basically I just press 'printscreen' button and a jpg appears on my desktop of the capture, much less messing about.....

Install it then adjust settings to suit yourself.

If the open box is displayed within a browser you can get an 'add-on' or 'extension' depending on your browser of choice. You can then select the area you wish to take a screenshot of

Windows 7 has the "Snipping Tool"

look in Start Menu, All Program, Accessories - its in there

Right click on it and 'Pin' it to your start menu - Its that useful !

EDIT : Sorry Just found out it only on some versions - but been on every WIN 7 I've used, so had assume it was common
" Snipping Tool is available only in the Home Premium, Professional, Ultimate, and Enterprise editions of Windows 7.
