Step-by-Step Guide to Taking a Partial Screenshot on Windows Keyboard
Taking a partial screenshot on Windows can be a useful way to capture only the most important parts of your screen. Whether you need to share an image with someone or just want to save it for later, this guide will show you how to take a partial screenshot on Windows using your keyboard.

6 Finally paste (Ctrl + V) this new partial screenshot into any document or application where you would like it saved by pressing Ctrl + V at once again on your keyboard
