Hello satan.
Some fag from the windows 7 thread this moring that said you can't take a screenshot in windows.
>>54962682
And of course you had to make a new thread you fucking retard

Can you take a screenshot of only your current window without having to manually crop it?

>>54965922
You can do most of this without any 3rd party tool.
mfw nobody knows about Snipping Tool
>>54966014
I shouldn't have to use snipping tool for a screens shot. On Linux and OS X there are multiple keyboard shortcuts to take a screen shot, that automatically saves and is timestampped. In Windows you curry nigger and paste in MSpaint, or sniping tool and then save
>>54966014
>yfw there's no hotkey for Snipping Tool
>>54966080
Or you write a script in autohotkey to automate it for you, but yeah that counts as using third party software to get basic functionality on windows.
>>54966089
Bind it to printscreen button with a script.
What's wrong with third party tools? Linux the OS is an OS literally composed of third party software.
>>54966014
but how did you snip the snipping tool?
>>54966122
They want it built into the operating system, that's what. Microsoft is slowly doing that.
>>54964386
Yes. I can actually use the mouse to select which area of the screen I want to screenshot on Trisquel.
>>54966089
There is now.
>>54966117
No need for AHK. It doesn't automatically activate a new snip though.
>>54966128
Alt+printscr to copy the active window, paste in Irfanview. Because MS thought there was no reason to allow multiple instances of Snipping Tool.

L0L. Looks like someone couldn't figure out how to compile there gentoo kernel again.

Hope it gets fixed soon, cause it is GOAT

Using Linux, of course this functionality is to be expected.
>>54966269
But does pressing alt+printscreen automatically dump the image into a folder of your choice for you?
>>54966133
What's the practical difference?
>>54966156
Can you choose destination folder and/or name formatting for the screenshot?
>>54966314
In terms of practically, there isn't any difference. But in terms of convenience, it's a minor annoyance.
>>54966338
>boohoo I need two minutes to install and configure a program, better whine about them on a mongolian basket weaving forum
Be glad you actually get a choice for once
>>54966232
Yeah. The only thing i wish i had with shutter is Pomf clone support.
>>54966303
>But does pressing alt+printscreen automatically dump the image into a folder of your choice for you?
who cares lol. Does Linux have proper driver support?
>>54966387

As expected from a shitty windows faggot.

In all honesty as someone whose on 10 I have no idea how people fall into this pit. Not only does my install nag me constantly when it wants to install an update (and is generally good at finding times I'm not using my computer), tell me multiple times within an hour it's about to do it by literally blocking the entire screen, but mostly I've generally had more times than not booting my computer on in the morning to see it skipped the update entirely for some reason...
>>54966532
It's 2016 and Microsoft still can't design an operating system that doesn't require you to restart after installing updates. Shit sucks.
>>54962643
match your windows theme color to your edge one
you probably have windows lockscreen on too...
in cmd (as admin):
sc delete diagtrack
sc delete dmwappushservice
now, install a real OS or gtfo. fedora would suit you.
>>54966626
I haven't used Windows in years. Do you still have to manually uninstall programs one by one in the control panel?
Also, the update and restart applies to all operating systems when it comes to kernel updates.
>>54966666
>Do you still have to manually uninstall programs one by one in the control panel?
Yes.
>>54966626
Linux has the same issue as well though. Besides, the standard user setup on a doze machine doesn't need to be on 24/7/365
>>54966752
>Do you still have to manually uninstall programs one by one in the control panel?
With Revo Uninstaller that would be a no.
>>54966666
Nice quints.
Win 10 has a package manager, which is pure shit, and I only ever used it once, when I had to reinstall the fucking win10 store. So yeah, you are better off if you just uninstall programs manually.
>>54962643
It's one of the few places Windows isn't a monolithic piece of shit.

>needing a third party program to uninstall multiple programs
Windows Start stops working. Can't open anything on start menu besides pinned applications. Not even the right part of it.
Microsoft solution? Reinstall Windows.
>>54966827
Or install Classic Shell start menu. So much more usable than the Win10 stock one.
>>54966856
how?

Install just the start menu part of it. It will replace the native start menu. Works on 8, 8.1 and 10. I think it works on 7 as well, but there's not a whole lot of point since that already has a very usable start menu.
>>54967811
no I meant how is it more useable?
>>54965551
Here's (You)
>>54967870
Search finds the right thing more often. 10's native search supposedly learns, but for example after giving me Device Manager for "device" for a while, it forgets and starts giving me the useless modern "Devices" setting panel again.
Search comes up with results faster. Especially on oldish systems, there's always a lag on the Win10 start menu search where there it was much quicker on 7.
More search results displayed.
Folders inside folders. No limit on items.
The right click menu for items includes more useful entries. You can right click a shortcut and get properties instead of right click, show file location, right click that shortcut in explorer and properties.
Expandable control panel items list if you enable it, along with expandable lists for whatever other folders you want.
Single click power/sleep/whatever button.
Jump lists for pinned and recently used programs.
Lots of things you can customize in it.
