how do you do a screen shot'

on my start page, i have a weather app. i want to copy to this or other

i know how to copy paste. you cant on the start page with the mouse

hp/pavilion windows 8.1 desk top
 
Hit PrtScn key on your keyboard and then go to some application and do a paste.

Also check in your start menu and see if you have an application called “snipping tool”. The newer windows come with that tool. If you do it with the prtscn key you have to paste it in paint of similar and then cut out what you want.
 
As above, I hit the PrtSc button, go to "paint" and paste the image.
 
thanks, trying to figure this out.
 
isn't Cntrl + Prt Scr ? then paste into MS-Paint ?

Well I'll be dipped, learn something new everyday.
 
prt scrn = capture whole screen
ALT+ PRT SCRN = capture active/open window.
CTRL + V = Paste
 
It's pretty handy and I use it a lot. Once you get used to their symbols; it's a piece of cake. And you can add arrows, text boxes and other cool things.
