To take a screenshot on a Chromebook, you can use the following methods:
 |
Method 1: Full-Screen Screenshoot
- Press the Ctrl and Window Switcher keys (the key with a square icon located in the top row, usually above the number 6 key) simultaneously.
- The screen will flash, indicating that the screenshot has been captured.
- The screenshot will be saved in the "Downloads" folder by default.
Method 2: Partial-Screen Screenshot
- Press the Ctrl, Shift, and Window Switcher keys simultaneously.
- Your cursor will change into a crosshair.
- Click and drag the crosshair to select the area of the screen you want to capture.
- Release the mouse button to capture the selected area.
- The screenshot will be saved in the "Downloads" folder by default.
Method 3: Tablet Mode Screenshot
If you're using a Chromebook in tablet mode (with the keyboard folded back or detached):
- Press the Power and Volume Down buttons simultaneously.
- The screen will flash, indicating that the screenshot has been captured.
- The screenshot will be saved in the "Downloads" folder by default.
After taking a screenshot, you can access it by opening the "Files" app and navigating to the "Downloads" folder. From there, you can view, rename, or move the screenshot to a different location if desired.
