Print screen?

Question

I had something on my computer that I wanted to save, so I pressed 'print screen' on my keyboard. It is copyed, but not saved. I want to upload the image to a site How do I save that image to a folder on my computer, not just have it copied?

Answer 1

Once copied, paste in paint then save.. and there ya go :)

Answer 2

Print screen puts it in memory. Go to MS Paint or something like that (Word works too) and Hit Ctrl - V or Edit and paste. Then save the document.

Also Alt PrintScreen copys just that window.

Answer 3

the print screen button copies what is on the screen of your computer at the time. from there, go to Paint, and click edit, paste. it will paste on to the page what the entire screen was when you hit print screen. take out the part of the picture that you want, then click file, save

Answer 4

Creates a clipboard item that has to be copied into another document. Assuming you have not cleared your clipboard, or performed a "copy" in Office...you can paste it. Save the document (Word, Excel, Outlook, Powerpoint, Lotus, etc...) and there you go.

Edit:
Incidentally, + will copy the *active* window only...all other running programs and tool bar at the bottom of the screen are not "imaged".

Answer 5

After pressing printscreen the pic of the whole screen is saved into your clipboard. Now if you want to print it you have to paste it into MS Paint. In Paint you can edit it or just go to File-Print and the pic will print to your default printer.
