To take a screenshot on a Chromebook, you have several easy options depending on whether you want to capture the entire screen or just a part of it:

• Full screen screenshot: Press Ctrl + Show Windows key (the Show Windows key looks like a rectangle with two vertical lines and is usually on the top row) to capture the entire screen. The screenshot is saved automatically in the "Downloads" folder

• Partial screen screenshot: Press Ctrl + Shift + Show Windows. This changes your cursor to a crosshair, allowing you to select the specific area of the screen you want to capture. The selected screenshot is then saved in the "Downloads" folder

• Using Quick Settings: Click the time in the bottom-right corner to open Quick Settings, then select Screen Capture. From there, you can choose to capture the full screen, a window, or a partial area, as well as record your screen

• On Chromebook tablets: Press the Power + Volume Down buttons simultaneously to take a full screenshot

All screenshots are saved as .png files in the Downloads folder, accessible via the Files app

. These methods provide quick and flexible ways to capture your Chromebook screen for sharing or saving important information.
