Tech Tip :: MORE PRINT SCREEN KEY

Donna from Texas sent in this Print Screen Key tip:

Hold down Alt while you press the Print Screen key (Prt Scr) and only the open window and not the entire desktop will be copied.

And Kevin from Pennsylvania sent this one:

If you use the ALT key along with the Prt Scr key and you have multiple windows open on your desktop, it will only copy the window that is on the top.
