[Windows][PrntScrn]  vs  [PrntScrn]  

 I think it be worth it to add a mention of the difference betweeb the 2 ... especially for Old Geezers like ... It totally went over my head that [Windows] [PrntScrn] creates the file in a Default folder (Screen Captures) in the Images directory ... This alleviate the need to paste in a Graphics program and Save As ... All is meed is renaming the file to something more significatn than "screen (123)" ... Winodws also default to ".PNG" so it insured compatibiilty ... Also doing this allows the user to use a Photo Managing software to review printscreen while Gaming ... Most are much friendlier to use for Zooming and for Poltergeist  Rotating & Flipping ... I personnally recommand Office Picture Manager (old habits dire hard :)  )  but there a zillion of those programs and anyone with a digital camera uses one ...

Again for novices or average user the "Photo Interface" is much more easy to grab & manage that "a grphics program" IMO  ... Here is a link that explains on  [Windows][PrntScrn] works along with how to snip a detail with [Windows][Shift][S] very useful when communicating graphics to illustrate a post ..
