One big advantage that Lightshot has is that you can resize the screenshot before saving it.
# Disable Windows Print ScreenSettings -> Bluetooth & Devices -> Keyboard
Use the Pring Screen key to open screen capture
# Configure Lightshot to use Print Screen
Right-click the Lightshot icon in the system tray.
Select Options.
Verify that the hotkey is set to Print Screen (PrtScn)
# Make sure Lightshot starts with Windows
Open Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc).
Go to Startup apps.
Ensure Lightshot is Enabled.
# If it still opens Snipping Tool
Windows 11 sometimes intercepts the key even when the setting appears disabled.
Type in a admin PowerShell:
> reg query "HKCU\Control Panel\Keyboard" /v PrintScreenKeyForSnippingEnabled
The value should be:
Plain Text
0x0
If it is 1, set it to 0:
> reg add "HKCU\Control Panel\Keyboard" /v PrintScreenKeyForSnippingEnabled /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
