The start menu is the menu that pops up when you click on the symbol/button in the menu bar at the bottom left corner of your screen.


In this menu will be an item called 'all programs' click on this and you'll get a folder list. Within this folder list will be one called 'accessories', click on this and you'll get a list of the programs, one of which will be 'paint'.


Once you have pressed the prt scr button then open the paint application and go directly to 'paste' in the edit menu.


Save the file somewhere where you can find it again.


Then come on here, start a new post, click on 'attach a file or photo', browse to the location and select it, then click on attach.


Bob's your uncle.

Yes, that is paint! Now you might have to press the prtscrn button again to capture your screen. Once you've done this, go back to paint again and click ctrl+v - this should paste the screen capture into the big box. If it does, save it as a file somewhere by pressing ctrl+s. Then if it doesn't need any further cropping you can upload it to the forum.

Yeh it is getting a bit convoluted, if you don't have any luck uploading your screenshot LM maybe you should just force quit the Help and Support window that is obscuring your screen and get rid of the damn thing??? If you want to do that press ctrl+alt+delete which will bring up the task manager. In the 'Applications' tab Choose Help & Support then click 'End Task'. If you don;t see it there, hop over to the 'Processes' tab and see if you can find it there. If you can, select it and click 'end Process'. If you've no idea what the feck is going on, then enjoy your dinner?

      Dell Autos is closing tomorrow

      By Sue · Posted

      Closing down completely. The lovely people there are all retiring. Thanks, but Deptford is a long way to go to make two journeys to  take and collect a car! Do they not do even relatively minor repairs if it fails its MOT first time? Then that would require four journeys 😭 Wondering if there's already a thread on here for garage recommendations? People on my road WhatsApp group have recommended some local ones. I'm particularly gutted because apart from the lovely people who worked there,  Dell was a five minute walk for me!

      Fireworks

      I did think that might be the reason, but five years out of seven it's going to be a weekday (I think. Not sure how leap years might affect things!)

      Fireworks

      By first mate · Posted

      Probably because the 5th was a weekday. We still have the weekend to come. Also, some fireworks going off nearly every night for the last few months. Last night something was being let off that made a very deep booming noise every 10 seconds or so. That said, if the general public are beginning to see the harm done by firework noise and choosing to use low noise options and refusing to support organised events that still use the full throttle type, I for one would be very happy. Does anyone know if the Herne Hill Velodrome Halloween fireworks event used low noise options?
