      The Snipping tool is so useful when I’m trying to explain to someone what’s going on, on one of my screens without taking a large 3 monitor screenshot.

      WIN+SHIFT+T gives you a crosshair cursor, outline what you want, then you can doodle on it, highlight stuff, etc.

      Even better, try Flameshot. Open source, cross platform, and lets you do very useful simple edits, like add arrows, shapes, text, and censoring.

        I’m a Greenshot user here. Similar ability to edit and customize default actions when hitting print screen. It’s the one thing I miss in Linux

          Why greenshot over flameshot? Flameshot works on Linux

            I use a ball mouse and so I can’t adjust the width of the drawing tools easily. Greenshot is a little less slick much easier for me to use.

            Wasn’t aware it was available for Linux. I’ll check it out

          Have you tried the built-in recorder from the game bar?

          No, it’s just a screenshot program

      Windows Shift S. Select an area of your screen which you can then paste. Also, Alt printscreen captures the current window.
