Solution 3: Screenshot on Asus Laptop with Fn Key
The first two solutions work on the Asus laptops with a standard keyboard. If you are using an Asus laptop with an Fn key, the PrtSc key works on not only screenshot. Therefore, Windows doesn't take a screenshot when you press keyboard shortcuts including PrtSc. Try the steps below to use the Fn key to complete the screenshot.
Press Fn + PrtSc to take a screenshot of the whole screen, which is copied to the clipboard. This is the same as pressing the standard PrtSc key.
Press Fn + Windows + PrtSc to take a screenshot of the whole screen and save it as a file on the hard drive. The screenshot will be stored in the Screenshot folder of the Picture library without using any other tool. This is equivalent to pressing Windows + PrtSc on a standard keyboard.
Press Fn + Alt + PrtSc to take a screenshot of the active window. This corresponds to pressing Alt + PrtSc on a standard keyboard.
Solution 4: Screenshot on Asus Laptop on Windows 10
With Windows 10's Snip & Sketch introduced with the October 2018 update, you can create, annotate, save and share screenshots.
Step 1: Search Snip & Sketch in the search field on your taskbar and click on it.
Step 2: Click on the New button on the top-left corner or press Ctrl + N to start the screenshot. Now you can click and drag the mouse to select a screenshot area.
