What does Alt+PrintScreen do? I know that Control+PrintScreen is the
Windows shortcut to Copy an image of the foreground window to the clipboard.
Additionally, I discovered that my favorite combination,
Control+Shift+PrintScreen is used in VMware Workstation to perform a screen
capture. Unfortunately, I tried several different combinations with
PrintScreen, and so far, none have worked.
