In Windows 10 and Windows 11, the two commands for copying screen 
contents are as follows:


* To copy everything on the screen, press the print screen button. Then 
paste into a document, etc., with ctrl+v.


* To copy only the current window, (1) make sure the window has focus by 
arrowing around, (2) press alt+print screen. Then paste into a document, 
etc., with ctrl+v.


This works, but it's fiddly. I usually wait a second or two after I move 
focus to the window I'm going to copy so it has time to settle down. 
Then after I paste, I wait another second or two before using NVDA OCR 
to verify that the screenshot is where I want it. If I don't wait, the 
command is hit and miss.
