4.) Who needs another screenshot function on Windows please?
That's a legitimate question! In fact, Windows already offers a built-in screenshot function via the "PrtScn" (Print Screen) or "Alt + PrtScn" key combinations to capture the entire screen or just the active window. So why use another screenshot feature?
Here are some possible reasons:
1. Additional features:
Some third-party screenshot tools offer advanced features beyond the built-in Windows options. These include, for example, the ability to select specific screen areas, add annotations or upload directly to the cloud.
2. User Preferences:
Some users may prefer the interface or functionality of certain third-party tools compared to standard Windows options.
3. Special Requirements:
Certain tasks or workflows may require specialized screenshot tools that offer specific features or integrations not available in Windows.
4. Easier to use:
Some users may find third-party screenshot tools more intuitive or easier to use than the built-in Windows options.
Ultimately, the need for additional screenshot functionality depends on the user's individual needs and preferences. While the built-in Windows options may be enough for many users, third-party tools can provide additional value depending on specific needs and preferences.
