New Laptop, Win. 10, Now I can't take screenshots

[RyanJZ]

So I got a new laptop with Windows 10, and now I can't take screenshots in FSX. Anybody else have this problem? Anyway to troubleshoot it?

I use Fraps, and I have no trouble taking shots in FSX under Win10.
What tools are you using?

You are telling me your new laptop does not have PRC SC button?? Just click on PRC SC button to take screenshot and paste it on MS Paint or any editing software.

I'm just using the built in screenshot function in FSX, the V button. And my laptop does have prt sc but I can't figure out how to find the screenshots I take using that

The image most generally would be on your Clip Board. You can view it using MS Paint. The shortcut to that is in Programs under Windows Accessories. There are a number of programs that will do the same thing, another being Paint Shop Pro.

I don't know if it works in Windows 10, but I find GrabClipSave very useful for screenshots in Widows 7.

I use a simple program found on avsim, made by Dennis Schagen, Screen Shooter. Works fine and has been with me on lots of computers and never failed. You can specify format (jpg/bmp) and the folder where it saves the screenshot, as well as the name it gets.

not sure if this works, maybe you need to login first: http://library.avsim.net/download.php?DLID=17354

How about the Windows default Snipping Tool http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/open-snipping-tool-and-take-a-screenshot
