Summary

To take a full-page screenshot on Windows in Chrome, install the free ClickSnap extension and press Alt+Shift+F, or open DevTools (F12), press Ctrl+Shift+P and run “Capture full size screenshot”. In Microsoft Edge, press Ctrl+Shift+S and choose “Capture full page”. Snipping Tool and Print Screen only capture the visible screen.

Why Print Screen and Snipping Tool fall short

`PrtScn`, `Win + Shift + S` and Snipping Tool capture your screen. A long web page continues below the fold, and those tools can’t scroll it for you.

Method 1: ClickSnap in Chrome (with editing)

  1. Install ClickSnap and pin it.
  2. Press `Alt + Shift + F`, or click the icon and choose Full Page.
  3. The editor opens with the whole page. Add arrows, numbered steps or blur, then Copy or export.

ClickSnap also works in Edge and Brave, since they run Chrome extensions.

Method 2: Chrome DevTools (built in)

  1. Press `F12` (or `Ctrl + Shift + I`).
  2. Press `Ctrl + Shift + P`.
  3. Run Capture full size screenshot. The PNG lands in Downloads.

Method 3: Microsoft Edge Web Capture (built in)

  1. In Edge, press `Ctrl + Shift + S`.
  2. Choose Capture full page.
  3. Edge opens the capture with a simple pen; save or copy it.

Which to use

  • No install, plain image: DevTools in Chrome, or Web Capture in Edge.
  • Bug reports, guides, or anything with private data to hide: ClickSnap.
