"Windows 10 Mini Tips" uses the latest Windows 10 environment at the time of each creation.

Using the "screen snipping area"

Windows 10 version 1903 adds a new method to the existing method of taking screenshots. That is the "screen clipping area". The basic operation method is the same as "Snipping Tool", but if you apply a feature update with "Windows 10 Update Assistant", it may not appear in Quick Actions, so let's enable it by following the steps below.

You can also use the "Win" + "Shift" + "S" keys to call up the "screen snipping area", so please choose the shortcut key or quick action, whichever is easier to use.

When "Screen Snip Area" is executed, the toolbars are lined up at the top of the desktop. ”.

"Rectangle ~" and "Freeform area ~" store the selected range such as dragging in the clipboard, and use "Cut & Sketch" which is available for free from the Microsoft Store to edit. Screenshots taken are often used to share information with others or create documents, so it is convenient to save from this tool or select to launch the app.

By the way, if you feel that the "Win" + "Shift" + "S" keys are difficult to press, you can switch the settings with "Easy operation/keyboard" in "Settings" and use the "PrtSc (PrintScreen)" key instead. .
