People find it very difficult to take screen snaps/ screen shots on their laptops and desktops, this is because of lack of knowledge. When you lack knowledge, you seem to be doomed in terms of technology. Many also believe that you can’t snap any screen image or text without a software, this is a big lie because this tutorial will show you how to take a screen shot in your laptop, and edit it to your choice

Screen shot is the ability to snap the images/texts that appear in your computer screen at any point/time
