Screenshots in Windows 10 are handy, whether the users are trying to write an article or show their friend something on their screen. Nevertheless, taking screenshots in it is not as simple as it could be.

In capturing an entire screen, the user will have to tap the PrtScn button. Although the screenshot will not be saved, but the screenshot will be copied to the clipboard. Wherein, the user will need to open an image editing tool, like the Microsoft Paint, to paste the screenshot into the editor and save the file.

If a Windows 10 user would like to capture an entire screen for sharing purposes, the user can use the Windows shortcut Key + H keyboard. This shortcut will capture an entire screen and then open the Windows Share toolbar, so the user can share the file with their friends through social media, such as Facebook, Twitter, OneNote, according to CNET.

Also, in taking a quick screenshot of the active window, the Windows 10 user can utilize the keyboard shortcut Alt + PrtScn. In addition, the Snip Editor lets a Windows 10 user take screenshots of an active window, the entire screen, or a manually-cropped rectangle. This Windows 10 feature can set up the PrtScn button as a shortcut to the screenshot tool of the Snip Editor.

On the other hand, the problem with the thumbnail cache in Windows 10 is that it grows over time as a person creates new folders and files. Fortunately, Windows 10 includes a few ways to reset and rebuild the messed up thumbnail, Windows Central reported.

In doing so, first open the File Explorer and on the left pane click This PC. From there, right-click the C: drive where Windows 10 is installed, and then select Properties. After that, click the Disk Cleanup button.

Then, check the Thumbnails and uncheck all the other options, and click OK. Finally, click Delete Files to confirm and to complete the task.
