A much easier way is to turn on your computer and have your finger poised over the Print Screen key on your keyboard. It is usually to the right of the F12 key and above the End key. Don't touch the mouse or anything on the keyboard. The screen will load the picture with just the time showing in the bottom left hand corner. Wait for it to disappear then quickly press and release the Print Screen key. Log in and wait a few seconds while Windows does its thing, then open Paint or Photoshop/whatever and select paste from the menu. If you timed it right you should have a hi res picture to save. If you haven't try it again next time. Most pictures repeat a few times. If you were quick enough you should have a perfect BMP picture. The Print Screen key works anytime you want to capture the screen. It's a left over from the old MS-Dos days but it still works!
Thank you so much it working if someone don't have command prompt type in the location box beside the arrows cmd then will appear the command prompt after that type the command in the video
When I am in the new "Spotlight" folder there is no "Open command prompt" option when I go to the File drop-down menu. It only shows "Open New Window" and "Open Windows PowerShell". Any idea why I can't access the command prompt within a folder? Thanks for the video!
1. Go to the destination folder and click on the path (highlights in blue). 2. type cmd. 3. Command prompt opens with the path set to your current folder
so i have a complicated question, instead of command, i have something called power shell and i typed in the ren * *.jpg and it its saying "ren : Cannot process argument because the value of argument "path" is not valid. Change the value of the "path" argument and run the operation again." soooooooo what do i do lol
What is the first line written in your command prompt bcoz I have opened the command prompt by searching bcoz in mine file explorer option was not available
