Taking screenshots seems to be a highly confusing and difficult process for some people. Here is an article that I have copied from an earlier post on this blog explaining how to take screenshots. I hope this helps you with your screenshot troubles!
Want to know how to take a screenshot? I have found two ways to do it. One shorter, one longer. Follow these instructions:
Longer way:
1. To take a screenshot, press the key labeled "Prt Scr" or "Print Screen".
2. Although nothing will happen, the image is being saved to your clipboard (which is where everything you copy and paste goes).
3. Open MS Paint (or any other photo editing software) and select "paste from clipboard" in the top right of MS Paint.
4. The image is now on your canvas! You can save this image as whatever you want, and then post it on the Creation Lab site.
Shorter way (this is ideal if you are going to be taking more screenshots in the future):
1. Download an image/video capturing software such as WeGame (search for it on Google)
2. Set up an account with them and then open the game.
3. You can set up picture and video hotkeys (such as F7 and F9) to take pictures faster.
4. When you take a picture, it is automatically saved to your main hard drive. This eliminates multiple steps in the print screen process.
