Having been watching a great film or TV programme through Windows Media Player I’ve wanted a single screenshot of one particular frame. Using the Print Screen button has never worked by default but there is a fix. Read on….

  1. In Windows Media Player click on Tools and then Options.
  2. This will bring up the Options dialogue box and you’ll need to choose the Performance tab as shown in RED in the image below.

    3. Screenshot Windows Media Player

  3. In the Performance tab click on the Advanced button towards the bottom.
  4. In the dialogue box that appears uncheck the Use Overlays tick box again shown in RED below and click OK.

    5. Screenshot Windows Media Player

  5. You can now capture a screenshot of any file you’re playing in Media Player with the Print Screen button.

There shouldn’t be any loss of quality or noticeable differences so capture screenshots using Print Screen at will!
