[Answered] Problems With Screen Shotting

[Herpz]

Over the past few months I haven't been able to report rule breakers on the forum because I am unable to screenshot CS:GO at all. When I do my Alt+PRT SC keys it just shows the tabs CS:GO is hiding but never shows the actual game itself in my screenshot

 

For example:

This happened earlier today when someone was mass-freekilling. I researched some ways to try and fix it but nothing seemed to help. I was just wondering if anyone on SG had any answers to this problem.

I believe the problem you are experiencing is due to you playing in fullscreen. One way to fix this is to play in windowed borderless so you are able to use Alt + Prt Scr and capture whatever is on your screen in CSGO. The other solution that you can try is using Steam Cloud's screenshot feature. The default is F12 and it'll save the screenshot to your Steam Cloud. To access those screenshots, you need to exit the game after doing and a pop-up with appear asking you to save your screenshot(s).

As @Thomson said, it's a problem that happens when you're in fullscreen. I've had this happen to me on various different games, but some games don't have the problem for whatever reason. Easiest solution is just use Steam's screenshot thing, also it stores it locally on your computer and it's easy to get to.
