If capturing the desktop screen, the snipping tool will do. It's part of Windows. Just search for the Snipping tool in your Start Menu.

If you're trying to capture the lockscreen, it's a little tricky. You have to use a utility and then FSCapture. It's kinda hard to explain without demonstration. xD

But I captured it like this:



It's Yoshino Nanjo on the lockscreen. She's my girl crush atm. xD

That's how you do a capture! Demonstrate away, Franny. Step by step like a cooking recipe, haha. Trust me, I'll get it. I also want to share lock screens on here as an added bonus/ /orz

Well, I really can't demonstrate it using a video, but I have the steps listed down in this post.

There are two things I included here for capturing both parts of the lockscreen: the password prompt and the one with the date and time. The normal PrtSc doesn't work when you try capturing both parts of the lockscreen unless you do something. I've outlined them below.

Capturing the password prompt part of the lockscreen involves downloading two pieces of software but I was intimidated by the instructions which included used of the Command Prompt. It might be like that at first, but trust me it turns out to be easy.

1. The first tool you need is a part of the Sysinternals Suite. Download PsTools here: https://download.sysinternals.com/files/PSTools.zip then unzip the download and copy the application PsExec.exe into the “C:\Windows\System32” directory.  What this tool does is let you execute programs on a remote system, such as the Winlogon Desktop.

2. The second program needed is a free screenshot utility called FastStone Capture.  Download the portable version here:

http://www.mediafire.com/file/2z3zjm49rr0dz87/fscapture.rar

3. After the download, unzip or extract and place it in an accessible location such as the C drive for easy access.

4. You now need to open the command prompt with administrative rights. Press Win + S then search the command prompt, right click, and click on Run as Administrator.

5. When the command prompt window appears, enter the following command, substituting the path to FSCapture.exe:

psexec –xs PathToFSCapture

- If you put the fscapture.exe to the C drive, the command should be

psexec -xs C:\FSCapture.exe

6. When you press “Enter”, this command will tell the PsExec application to launch the FSCapture program on the local Winlogon Desktop (switch “-x”) and launch it as the system user account (switch “-s”).

Now lock your desktop by using the “Win + L” shortcut.  The Windows logon screen will come up.  Pressing “Alt + Tab” reveals the FSCapture window.

To take a screenshot of the lock screen, simply click on the “full screen screenshot” button.  Once you’ve done that, FSCapture will open that shot in its editor and you can now save the file.  Save it to a different location, i.e. not the C drive.

There!
The result is the same screenshot from the earlier post.



There's another trick that exists that involves adding the snipping tool to the Ease Of Access through a registry value. I tried that. The snipping tool works while on the lockscreen to capture an image but it doesn't let you save the screenshot on your computer. FSCapture has no problems saving an image.

Therefore, the above method should work for you. Besides, tweaking the Registry is like ugh.

Now, capturing the part of your lockscreen where it shows the date and time is easier.

1. You will need to enable the CTRL-ALT-DELETE requirement to unlock your PC. Press Win +R and then type control userpasswords2 then hit Enter.
2. Click Advanced Tab and put a checkmark on Require users to press Ctrl-Alt-Del then click OK.
3. Once done, press Win +L to lock your computer.
4. Press PrtSc.
5. Log back in and run Paint.
6. Paste.

Voila!



She's sooooooo!!! handsome! :D *LOLZ*

You had me at "powerful Egyptian Goddess." I await the release with some impatience. Any chance of a digital version?

Yeah! We will also have a digital release as well :3 we are still looking at options for that and should be out at the same time as the physical copy.

I'll purchase both copies as promised! You know me, though, Kara. Physical paperback copies are my preferred format! How else can I touch Ahmes' Pilates abs?
