Coming from software development, we do have tests that insert a screenshot into the report in case they fail, and I'm assuming we are not the only ones that found the PrtScr button to be useful for that
I can honestly say you might be the only ones. I've never heard or even conceived of such a thing.
There are a ton of ways to avoid this in the first place:
- use CLI to take the screenshot instead of simulating a key press
- don't test on Windows 11
- use reproducible test instances where you've turned this option off
- (if screenshotting text) use... logs?
I'm truly baffled by this complaint.
I wouldn't put it past Microsoft to preserve the old behavior just for programmatic keypresses.
For 99.999% of the users, I reckon this is a good change. And for the rest they've thoughtfully provided an option to revert.
