Tired of taking a screenshot with Win+PrntSrc and having to go get the image from your user/pictures/screenshot folder? The new Windows 10 Creator Update makes it even simpler than the old Snipping tool.


Just press the Shift+Win+S.  It will lighten your screen and allow you to click and hold your left mouse button and drag the cursor to select an area of the screen. Just release it and it will copy that screen area directly to your clipboard.

After that, it's just a simple CTRL-V to paste it into any program that support graphics editing.
