- Windows 11 maps the “Print Screen” key to the Snipping Tool by default.
- You can enable or disable this behavior in Keyboard settings.
- Turning it off restores the “Windows key + Shift + S” shortcut.
- Disabling the shortcut lets other screenshot apps use the Print Screen key.
UPDATED 12/17/2025: On Windows 11 , the system remaps the Print Screen (Prt Scr) key to the Snipping Tool by default to make it easier to take screenshots. However, if you want to use another app, you will notice that it won’t be able to register the print key on the keyboard, but you can always change this behavior for any reason, including if you’re comfortable using the previous default “Windows key + Shift + S” keyboard shortcut.
In the same way, if pressing the Print Screen key doesn’t open the Snipping Tool interface, you can change the “Keyboard” settings to open the screen capture tools more easily by pressing one key instead of using a shortcut.
In this guide , I will show you how to change Windows 11 settings to enable or disable the Print Screen key, which opens the Snipping Tool interface to capture screenshots .
