PrintScreen button is overriden by default windows screenshot tool

Open ganqqwerty opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

It's mentioned multiple times that pressing PrintScreen button is the fastest way to OCR. However, by default in Windows 11, the PrintScreen button runs the screenshot tool. Do I need to remove that default shortcut somewhere in Windows settings?

You can disable it in the Windows 11 Settings by going to Settings > Accessibility > Keyboard and toggling off the 'Use the Print Screen key to open Snipping Tool' setting.

No chance that can be overriden by the app? it is certainly convenient to open the snipping tool with the print screen button
