Step-by-Step Guide to Taking a Window Screenshot on Dell Laptop Windows 10

Taking a screenshot on a Dell laptop running Windows 10 is an easy process. Follow these steps to capture the image of your screen:

1. Locate the “Print Screen” key on your keyboard. This key is usually labeled “PrtScn” or something similar and can be found near the top right corner of your keyboard, between F12 and Scroll Lock.

2. Press the “Print Screen” key to take a screenshot of your entire screen, including all open windows and programs. The image will be saved to your clipboard, but not as an actual file yet.

3. Open an image editing program such as Microsoft Paint or Adobe Photoshop Elements (or any other program that allows you to edit images).

4. Paste the screenshot into the program by pressing Ctrl + V (or Command + V if you are using a Mac). This will create a new document with the screenshot in it that you can save as an image file for later use or edit further if desired.

5. To save it as an image file, go to File > Save As and choose which type of file format you would like it saved in (such as .jpg or .png). Give it a name and click Save when finished!
