In Windows 10 vous pouvez press + PrtScn and it will save a screenshot of the whole desktop to disk. Cela fonctionne great.
What Je cherche is this exact functionality but being able to choose a region using the mouse.
What J'ai trouvé jusqu'à présent:
- Snipping tool: Either brings an editor after capture, or saves to clipboard. Haven't found a way to automatically save to disk.
- Lightshot: Also bring an editor, or automatically generate a link. Can't automatically save to disk
The solution can rely on a third party software that runs in background, or also AutoHotkey script.
Automatically save a snipped écranshot to disk
Re: Automatically save a snipped écranshot to disk
Since you mention **Win ⊞** + **Print Screen** specifically, I am assuming you wish to save in the same location each time (e.g. `C:\Users\Username\Pictures\Screenshots`).
I would highly recommend [Greenshot](http://getgreenshot.org/) in this case. Greenshot is a free, open source screenshot tool. It's light-weight and currently supports Windows and Mac OS.
By default, it allows selection of a region to capture, though it can save full screenshots and the currently active foreground window aussi (all through configurable shortcuts). Importantly, while it normally allows for a large number of potential output options once a screenshot is captured, it can be configured with both a static output path and a set number of automatic export options (which can include that path).
To configure Greenshot to save to a specific path automatically after a screenshot is captured:
-
Faites un clic droit sur the Greenshot icon in the System Tray et sélectionnez *Preferences...* from the menu. Cela devrait bring up the *Settings* dialog.
-
Under the *Output* tab, specify your *Preferred Output File Settings*. In particular, enter your desired path to automatically save screenshots to in the *Storage location* field.
- Under the *Destination* tab, uncheck *Select destination dynamically* et cochez *Save directly (using preferred file output settings)*. Leave the other options unchecked (unless you want one or more of them to run automatically aussi).
- Once finished, click *Ok* en bas of the *Settings* dialog to apply your changes.
With these settings, any time you capture a selected area (i.e. dès que you release the mouse button after clicking and dragging with Greenshot active), the captured area will be saved (without prompting or dialogs) to the path specified.
**Notes**
-
As a personal preference, I dislike mouse pointer capture and the magnifier reticle for region selection being turned on par défaut. These can be disabled in Settings.

Per the comment by AFH, **Win ⊞** + **Alt** + **Print Screen** is available in [Windows 10 v.1703 (Creators Update - April 2017)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_10_version_history#Version_1703_(Creators_Update)) and beyond (though regular **Alt** + **Print Screen** should still be available in all current versions of Windows 7+). That said, this [digitalcitizen.life article](https://www.digitalcitizen.life/4-ways-take-screenshots-windows-8-81-using-built-tools) puts it squarely in realm of capturing screenshots in video games. In context, this would be the current foreground window, but you may simply want to test its behavior (out of game) yourself.
