Why my "prt scr" button does not work?

Why my "prt scr" button does not work?

In the days of DOS, the print screen button to print the screen. But in all versions of Windows, it works differently, and the key name has become an anachronism. The key is * not * print screen. PrtScrn captures the entire screen and Alt-PrtScrn captures the active window.

Either a capture of the image in the Windows Clipboard. Once it is on the Clipboard, you can paste it (Ctrl + V) into any application that supports the graphics (Windows Paint, other software graphics, even your favorite word processor). You can change or add to the image that you want, and then print it out.

This ability to manipulate the image in a program before printing is an improvement to the original method of printing the whole back. But if you like that old return facility, there are several third party freeware/shareware programs that can do it, like PrintKey2000 to http://www.sharewarejunkies.com/00zwd2/printkey2000.htm

  • Print screen button does not work

    I have a Lenovo R61i Notebook.  Print screen button does nothing.  How can I print screen on this computer?

    I'm not familiar with your product, but on my SL500, there is a Fn key at the bottom left of the keyboard.  If I press on that and press the print screen (F6) and then open my Windows Paint program (or any other image editing program, I guess), I can 'stick' the image of the screen then change for my taste and export in jpg or bitmap or print on my printer.

  • ""(Print Screen) print Scr key does not work is not in Windows XP Pro - (no LOCK "F") "."

    I have Windows XP - Pro.  The "Print Scr" button does not work and niether is the combination of keys 'Alt + P'.  My keyboard is not an "F LOCK" / key "F Lock feature" because it has a "Num Lock" key  There's no other keys on my key Board that suggest even a '___Lock' of any kind.  If not, how can I get this feature.  Oh... and one more thing, Microsoft/people sending responses to others, here, to "Social responses" can you try to be a little more specific with what you're talking about?  As your knowledge is greatly appreciated by many, many of us are unfamilliar with computers and have NO idea what you're referring to.  When Microsoft did not find something or is just lazy to do so, he advises people to "ask the administrator of the computer.  I'm the "computer administrator", but I'm inexperienced! How does it work?  Thank you all.

  • Satellite U920T - duplex cam + touch screen + win button does not work

    I have the problem as the touch screen + frontal camera + camera rear windows on the screen button do not work.

    I tried to install the drivers to display/graphics but that has not helped.

    I bought this laptop from Saudi Arabia and it is still under warranty but I am out of country, so I can't ask the warranty as well.

    someone please fix this and tell me the solution, or tell me what I need to do?

    Help will be really appreciated.
    some details on my laptop:

    Toshiba Satellite U920T-B919.
    Windows 8.1 updated 64-bit.

    Thank you

    Since you mentioned different problems with your laptop, I think that in this case its recommended to get the laptop back to factory settings just to check if all these problems are related to the problem of system.

    Regarding the webcam: Windows 8/8.1 already contains the webcam drivers and therefore additional webcam driver installation isn t possible. Extra webcam driver is not simply.

    From my point of few smells of any description as a bit of a problem of material, the upper part of the slide where the touch screen is part of.
    The key win as well that the two cams are located and there are probably some lose the connection between the two parties (touchscreen and keyboard)

    Anyway, as I said more top, its recommended to recover the laptop to factory settings just to make sure that the system isn t the troublemaker.
    In case of hardware problems, you must get in touch service available in your country.

  • iPhone 5 home button does not work after ios 10

    My 5 Iphone Home button does not work after update final IOS version of 10.

    The home button works on the first push to wake the phone but it will not open the phone the second button.

    I activated the assist button, which does not work either. But what I discover is if I open device for assistance then touch and lock screen click on the button home will work once to open the phone. If I open any app I can't close it unless I go through the same routine.

    You attempted to restart your phone?

    You can do so by holding the sleep/wake button and the Home button simultaneously until the Apple logo appears

  • The jump button does not work on iPhone

    Skip to the next song button does not work on iPhone. When you press the jump key, instead of going to the next track or shuffle to the next song, he repeats / restarts the track that is currently playing. Even when the song ends, it starts all over. It's like all my songs are stuck on repeat. The only way to change a song is by manually choosing a different, or by manually typing the shuffle button. Everything worked great yesterday. I asked several of my friends to check my conclusions, and they have confirmed the same questions. If anyone knows how to fix this help please.

    Hello Gus87,

    I understand that your iPhone seems to be stuck playing the same song, regardless of your attempts to move to the next track. This may be due to the function "Repeat" enabled in the current reading on your iPhone screen.

    • Control playback. Tap a song to play and show the Miniplayer. Tap the Miniplayer to display the now playing screen, where you can do the following:

    Repeat steps. Press on to repeat an album or a playlist. Double click to repeat one piece.

  • Re: Satellite L655 - the Touchpad on/off button does not work

    This morning, I noticed that the power button of the touchpad of my Satellite does not, although the Fn + F9 key combination works by enabling and disabling my touchpad.

    It was working well until what I slept last night when I woke up, my laptop has rebooted due to updates of Windows during the night. I don't read anything since I have been using a wireless mouse. Then reach work and check if I can activate my touchpad (Windows has loaded and connected), the display screen that shows if the touchpad is active or not does not appear and my touchpad, power button does not work.

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Is this problem only you?
    I mean it's not so important, and I would not reinstall or change anything because of this.
    Until you can use the FN + F9 key combination I put t think it's a serious problem.

    What do you think of this?

  • The scan button does not work on Windows XP Media Center edition 2005

    Name of the printer: hp psc 1350 all-in-one

    Hi, this is happened since I reinstalled the operating system with an OEM disc, removing all the hp stuff. I got a new OEM drive that comes from hp (I think... well hp stuff works now) but the scan button does not always work. The old record was kind broken.

    I don't mind, but it will be useful, if it could be repaired. Don't want to do something big, would rather just not fix that to do something does not.

    Note: Scanning works, but I have to look somewhere else (e.g. opening scan in the Panel)

    OK, that explains why the scan button does not work.

    The complete software is required for the scan button to work, it is not a feature of the base software.

    Be sure to follow the steps below in order to get is torted:

    1. Unplug the USB from the printer.
    2. On the start menu, enter the HP folder. and follow the link to uninstall to remove the current software.
    3. If you don't find it there, go into control panel > add or remove programs, and remove any software installed HP PSC 1300 series.
    4. Download and install the full feature below:
      http://ftp.HP.com/pub/softlib/software10/COL8901/MP-23606-3/gc_w01_ENU_NB.exe
    5. You will find the Director of HP under the HP software. If you have problems using it, make sure you install the following hotfix:

  • screen saver does not work when magic jack is pluged in. unplug mj it works

    screen saver does not work when magic jack is pluged in. unplug taking magic, the screensaver works properly.

    09/05/10 the MagicJack has released an update that prevents the screen saver and "standby" mode. They are aware that people are upset on this issue, but they seem not to care.

    Here is a simple solution to the problem. I've used it since 10/09/10 and it works perfectly.

    Restore the functionality of screen saver / display after MagicJack diverted these features...

    Click on the Start button in Windows 7

    type cmd in the search box

    Right click on cmd and run as administrator if you are not running as an administrator it will not work!

    type: powercfg /requestsoverride PROCESS magicJack.exe DISPLAY

    Make sure that you type the capitol letters and lowercase no look of magic make 'J' ack it's capitol as well!

    Press enter

    Now unplug your magicjack

    Restart your computer and let the unplugged MagicJack

    Once the computer starts together your screensaver for a minute then let it sit for a minute activate screen saver...

    Now plug your magic let sit for one minute Alto screen saver is now active!

    If you want to activate the sleep as well, follow the same instructions as above, but simply type this line instead.

    type: powercfg /requestsoverride PROCESS magicJack.exe DISPLAY SYSTEM

    If you follow these instructions, your sleep/screen mode will work as before.

    Kind regards
