Is there anyway to assign the print screen button to where when its pressed ONLY ONE TIME it will take a full screenshot and save it to the screenshot folder? I know it can be set up to be pressed once then click on the cursor pad and it will save. But is there a way to eliminate the cursor pad out of it?

    Hi, Joel. I'm Robinson, and I’m happy to help you today.

    You can use a third-party app called LightShot, after installing you set one of the F keys to save the screenshot directly.

    Step 1: Download and Install

    1-Download and install the LightShot.

    https://app.prntscr.com/en/download.html

    2-Right-click on the LightShot icon in the taskbar beside the clock and select Options

    3-Click on the HotKeys tab

    4-Set the key that you want to use in the "Instant save of the fullscreen"

    Step 2: Configure the folder where you want to save

    1-Press the Prt Sc key

    2-Select one area and the options will be shown

    3-Click on the save button, select the folder that you want to save, and save the screenshot. You can see how to do it in this video.

    4-You only will need to do it once, after that when you press the key set on Step 1 the screenshot will be saved automatically on this folder.
