I wanted to make an image of my desktop and someone told me I could do that by hitting "print screen" and then copy/pasting it into and image editor. But I push print screen and nothing happens, I don't get it.

Hi

You were told correctly.

Press 'print screen.'

This copies the desktop which then has to be pasted into a document. I use word as example..
Open word for example, right click your mouse and you should get the 'Paste' command.

Left Click 'Paste' and the image should appear in your document.

hope this helps
