Win 10- Screenshot shortcut stopped working

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

I understand that you are unable to use print screen short cut. We will help you to resolve the issue.

I would appreciate if you could answer few questions to narrow down the issue.

1. Did you try the same with different keyboard?

2. Are you able to take screenshot using onscreen keyboard?

Please reply to us with the required information. We will be happy to help.

Thank you.

When attempting to use the onscreen keyboard for the shortcut, nothing happens; no screenshots are saved in the screenshots folder and there is no screen flash. I do not have any other keyboards.

I got an email telling me that if I still need help to post more information so I will paste the previous reply:

In my case was different. The app suddenly stopped working and says the app was unavailable. It says the app was going to crash (literally) its like the app had been damaged permanently. I thought about Uninstall but it doesn't allow me. I do really need it, help, please
