"Microsoft shakes up Print Screen key in Windows 11 update"

Microsoft is changing the default function of the Print Screen (PrtScr) key in Windows 11 to open the Snipping Tool instead of simply taking a screenshot and storing it on the Clipboard, OneDrive, or third-party apps. Users can still make a copy of the entire screen with Snipping Tool, but it requires an extra step. The change has been met with a shrug by most users, who can turn off the default setting in the Accessibility Settings menu. Some users prefer third-party apps like Greenshot and ShareX. The change reflects the modern user environment of multiple monitors and larger screen sizes.
