Screenshots are a great way to save and keep photos of the things you see on your computer. Whether it’s a funny video on YouTube, an article on the news, or something more personal like a photo of a friend on Facebook, taking screenshots of them is a great way to record that moment in time and store it somewhere safe.
To take a screenshot on HP Envy x360 laptop, you’ll need to use an alternate keyboard or special button combination.
1. Using the Print Screen Key
The print screen key, usually found above the “F” keys on your keyboard, is the fastest way to screenshot on any laptop. Pressing the PrtScn button will immediately save a full screenshot of your entire computer screen to your clipboard.
You can then use a program like Microsoft Paint or Google Photos to save the screenshot to a file. If you’re taking a screenshot of a program or websites in full-screen mode, pressing the PrtScn button will not save the screenshot. You’ll have to press Esc to exit full screen mode, and then press PrtScn to save the screenshot.

2. Using the Windows Key + Ctrl Key Combination
The Windows Key + Ctrl Key Combination is a standard method used to take a screenshot on most laptops. This will work for most programs, including the calculator, or any website that you’re browsing.
The only real difference between the PrtScn key and this method is that the screenshot will be saved to the clipboard. You’ll have to manually paste the screenshot into a program like Microsoft Word or Paint before you can save it as a file.
3. Using the Windows Key + Alt Key Combination
The Windows Key + Alt Key Combination is similar to the combination above, but the screenshot will be saved to the “Pictures” folder on your computer. This method is a bit more intuitive than the combination above, since it will save the screenshot to a default folder on your computer. However, you can’t use this method on full-screen programs, like a YouTube video or Netflix show.
4. Using the Windows Key + Cortana Key Combination
The Windows Key + Cortana Key Combination is another standard method used to take a screenshot on most laptops. This works for all programs, just like the Windows Key + Ctrl Key Combination.
Again, the only real difference between the PrtScn key and this method is that the screenshot will be saved to the clipboard. You’ll have to manually paste the screenshot into a program like Microsoft Word or Paint before you can save it as a file.
5. Screenshots with HP Print Screen Shortcut
HP includes a print screen shortcut that’s fairly easy to use. To take a screenshot with this shortcut, all you have to do is press and hold the fn key and then press the print screen key. The screenshot will be automatically saved to your Pictures folder as a file, and you can view and edit the screenshot from within the Photos app.
6. Screenshot with Shoryuken Button
The Shoryuken Button is a small device that plugs into your USB port and controls a variety of functions on your computer. With the Shoryuken Button, you can take screenshots in a variety of ways.
All you have to do is plug in the Shoryuken Button, press a button combination, and a screenshot will be saved to your computer. You can plug the button into any computer, so it’s a great button to keep in your laptop bag.
