The print screen or alt print screen, hear no notifications in windows server 2019 1809 under hyper v. and no screen shots saved. So any software can I use that will do screen captures. Snipping tool does not read well with nvda and windows narrator. Don't have a remote licence for jaws. Thanks.

Hi. Do have the print screen does tell me it with jaws on the windows 10 and the print screen key, and saves to one drive. Do have one drive set up inside hyper v, but nvda is not telling me the print screen. Says nothing. When I go to my one drive folder. Nothing there. So how do I fix that. Thanks.

screen capture software

Hi. Need to use a accessible free screen capture software for windows server 2019. Need to capture the screen, then save them as a png or other images. Need to do this for a network lab and to show my trainer what I have done inside windows server 2019 inside hyper v manager. Any ideas. Have tried different software. Either not accessible or not able. Unless have to create a auto hot key script to do this. Thanks.

Hi. Got nvda installed and set up the laptop keyboard and use caps lock as a keyboard short cut. And then set that up. When I login and then open hyper v manager, connect then use the computer. When I press the caps lock key on my laptop. Says the nvda + f 12, but also says caps lock on. How can I not hear this. Any ideas. Or ask my sighted network friend. Also. Maybe he can fix this and the activate windows on wed. and server manager works great. Do have a active directory server dc already set up. Thanks.remote

Please make sure you are connected to the internet for your orgn. Have to ask my sighted network friend on wed. Thanks.

Hi. Tried a couple of commands and did try activating windows server 2019 essentials 64 bit inside hyper v and a remote connection. Tried googling and either did not work inside command prompt or windows power shell. So how do I activate it short of having to do a recovery. Using hyper v manager latest windows 10 64 bit pro 2004. Thinkin use the data centre, but not sure. When I do a win ver. It does not seem to tell me which version. Thanks.
