I am currently using Edge version 126.0.2592.68.

In the past, using the Ctrl+Shift+S shortcut key will bring up the 'Web Capture' function. You can choose to capture the entire page or area capture (a very good and convenient function, you can take scrolling screenshots), but now It seems that it has been replaced by 'Screenshot', which is a very common screenshot with countless alternatives of taking a screenshot of the current content and adding a simple markup. Why has the web capture feature disappeared?

The official website introducing this feature:

Web capture (microsoft.com)

What it supposed to be:

What it is now:

Microsoft Edge | Other | Windows 11

    Web Capture was there yesterday but not today. I haven't even rebooted the PC. Using the Screenshot feature - it tells me that the selection has been copied but when I try to paste it, there is nothing there. So I have to go back to using the Snipping Tool

    Good day HHFY, thanks for your question. I am glad to be able to provide assistance to you today. Sorry to know about this in-app experience and for this there is no clear cut information as to why this particular feature has been removed and has been replaced and this looks like this is also missing on the Canary, Dev and Beta versions. You can also send a feedback to the team that is working on Edge and hopefully this will come back sooner or later and you can provide a feedback from the browser itself by clicking on the 3 dots > Help and feedback > Send feedback. Alternatively, you can also cross check an extension like GoFullPage or Page Screenshot to see if this will suit your needs.
