If you’ve tried to take a screenshot of a game with the PrtScn key, you’ve likely noticed that it doesn’t work. Because it doesn’t work with fullscreen games, you’ll need to use another method to capture your best gaming moments. If you use Steam to play games, you can use the built-in screenshot utility. MSI Afterburner is a popular alternative that can capture screenshots of any game. If you’re using Windows 10, you can use the Xbox app that comes preinstalled to take screenshots.
1-Start Steam. Using Steam to take screenshots is the easiest way if you’re already playing the game on Steam. Steam has a built-in screenshot function that you can use for any Steam game. If you don’t use Steam to play games, see the method for using MSI Afterburner.
2-Click the /”Steam/” menu and select /”Settings./” This will display the Steam settings menu.
3-Click the /”In-Game/” tab. This will display settings for the Steam overlay.
4-Click the /”Screenshot shortcut keys/” field. This will allow you to set a new key for screenshots. By default, it is F12.
5-Press the key or combination you want to use. You can press a single key, or hold Ctrl/⌘ Command, Alt/⌥ Opt, or ⇧ Shift and then press a key to create a combination.
6-Click the /”Screenshot Folder/” button. This will let you change the location that your screenshots are saved. Select the folder that you want to use.
7-Choose your other screenshot options. You can have Steam show a notification, play a sound, and save an uncompressed copy. The uncompressed copy will be an exact replica of your screen in the game, but the file size will be much larger.
8-Click /”OK/” to save your changes. You’ll be able to take screenshots with your new settings.
9-Start the game you want to take screenshots of. You can use the screenshot key for any of the games you play in Steam.
10-Take a screenshot while you’re playing. Press the key or combination you set to take your screenshot. If you enabled notifications, you’ll hear or see it immediately.
