On some laptops PrtScr he as a double function and <Fn> + PrtScr might work.

I use the default Windows built in too, never any problems, but I am very, very reluctant to open attachments of e-mails because I do use my own macros so scripting is enabled.
I just tried that with the function key a the PrtScr is in a function box. No joy. There must be a simple answer to this...
You're trying with a laptop right?
Brand? Type?
HP ZBook
Yep... <Win>+<PrtScr> should work ...

Did you the internal Win11 call?
What's that?

It's a powerful PrtScr function build into WIN11 you will call upon.
Yeah I tried that already, it's the snipping function, I can then save the image to the PC/Pictures/screenshot file, but it's not the plain vanilla screenshot that this machine should do with one or two buttons pressed.

It saves to clipboard but f**k knows how to find that :D
If it saves to the clipboard a simple ctrl-v should paste it back when in the right app.

Edit: I can do a screenshot via WIN+SHIFT+C , so I know the WIN key works.
Not sure what you're using there, but on mine I just hit PrtScn. No need for WIN+
I am using a HP ZBook with Windows 11pro. According to HP and Windows, and my previous HP Envy, WIN+PrtScn takes a full screen picture and saves to This PC/Pictures/Screenshots.

The key has a double function. <Insert> being the default, so hitting <Win> + <Insert / prt Sc> will be processed as <Win><Insert> by the OS.

Usually a combi with the <Fn> key enables the second function.

if you are on an updated version of Windows 10 or Windows 11, you don't need an anti virus anymore. The built in windows Virus threat protection is good enough. This is unless you like plugging your thumb drive to everyone's PC.
