Screenshotting is a highly used action. Windows 10 has been updated to now, and the built-in screenshot function has been quite perfect. There is no need to download and install any other programs, and you can have a fast, efficient and flexible screenshot function. I will introduce it to you below.
Windows 10 screenshot shortcut key: Win + Shift + S
Compared with earlier years, the screenshot shortcut key of Windows 10 has one more Shift key, changed to Win + Shift + S, to avoid duplication with another very commonly used shortcut key: “Search Win + S”, but at the same time, the shortcut key for full-screen screenshot Win + Prt Sc (Print Screen) is still retained.
Windows 10’s built-in screenshot feature has 4 modes:
-
Full screen screenshot: Full screen screenshot, the effect is the same as Win + Prt Sc (Print Screen).
-
Rectangular screenshot: Select a rectangular screen area to take a screenshot.
-
Hand-drawn polygon screenshot: Circle the desired range to take a screenshot.
-
Window screenshot: Take a screenshot of a specific window.

For ordinary households and individual users, if they do not encounter any compatibility issues with development software or commercial software, there is really no need to fight for Win 7 for another 10 years.
