Print Screen copies the image on your computer to your clipboard.

What you can do to get a screen show
1.Print Screen
2.Open Paint
3. press ctrl + V for paste
4. the image should be in paint now
5. save the picture

You can use the select and crop tools in paint to cut out parts of your screen you don’t want also

After pressing “Print Screen” You should open up a tool such as MS paint right click and paste.

If you are using a mac, then I believe that is:
⌘ + Shift + 3

And the same as above, open some sort of paint program and paste it there.

Sometimes if you right click the mouse button a print option will come up and that will work.
