How to take screenshot on Windows 11 with advanced editing feature?
Windows key + Print Screen is quick, but you can’t select areas, and it auto-saves everything—even the stuff you don’t want. I’d recommend https://www.engadgot.com/take-screenshot-on-windows-pc— it’s much more flexible, lets you capture exactly what you need, and saves you from the extra hassle.
Greeshot is definitely the king of lightweight players. It is very easy to use and suitable for people who don't want to spend too much energy on studying complex tools. Especially when taking screenshots on Windows 11, the area and full screen are very smooth, and even scrolling page screenshots can be done (although sometimes you need a little patience).
Its editing function is also very practical. After taking a screenshot, you can directly mark, add arrows, draw frames, and even blur sensitive information. It is especially suitable for demonstrations or quick sharing. After taking a screenshot, you can also upload it to Imgur with one click, or save it directly to the local computer, which is very convenient.
Disadvantages:
- Scrolling screenshots are occasionally not compatible with some complex pages, and sometimes you have to adjust them manually.
- The built-in functions are not as good as heavy tools. It is suitable for people who do not have complex screenshot needs but need to solve problems quickly.
In general, Greeshot is a simple and powerful tool. If you want to quickly get screenshots and don't want to toss complex software, choose it!
