Microsoft is changing the behaviour of Print Screen key
As a part of the update, Microsoft is updating the behaviour of Print Screen or Prt Sc key. Usually, we use this key to capture the entire screen at once and then paste it on Paint, Word or wherever we want to. This has been the default task of the PrtSc button forever.
With the Windows 11 KB5025310 update, the behaviour of the PrtSc button has changed. Going forward, pressing the PrtSc button will trigger the Snipping Tools and Snip & Sketch app on Windows 11 allowing users to capture the screenshot or even record the screen.
Windows 11 Snipping Tools update
Microsoft started by merging the Snipping Tool and Snip & Sketch app under the Snipping Tool. And, recently, the company updated the Snipping Tool to offer features like built-in screen recording and autosave screenshots. The Snipping Tool is now the default screen capture tool for Windows 11.
Windows 11 PrtSc behaviour can be changed
Thankfully, Microsoft is not forcing users to stick to the new PrtSc behaviour. Users have the option to revert it back to the original. For this head to Settings > Accessibility > Keyboard, and change the setting to how you want.
Windows 11 KB5025310 update other improvements
In addition to the PrtSc behaviour, the update also includes an update to Windows Settings’ Search bar to offer better performance and allows users to search faster within the Settings menu. In addition, the update also limits Alt+Tab and Snap Assisnt to 20 more recent tabs to improve the performance.
