    If you cant figure it out either, I finally did its called a snipping tool. Just type that name in your search bar and make a icon or pin it for easy access.

    sad to hear! :facepalm3:

    i wonder how many decades it takes until we finally get a decent screenshot solution that works on all platforms?

    no idea sorry! :biggrin2:

    ps: seems it worked like 10 years ago, but not without additional tools anyways...

    This works pretty good its a little awkward for full screen or single screen players.
    I play windowed with 2 screens and the snipping tool work ok.

    yes, but it's not very user friendly. it should save a screeny atm when you press prt-scr or have a global! :2pec:

    ET works fine for me on Win 10 and makes good screenshots, even though I don't care for them - I like to grab the swirlies manually and choose the best shot out of many :). For manual screen and video grabbing I use MSI Afterburner, it also can display fps and CPU/GPU load/temp. I also successfully used Fraps in the past, but Afterburner is more feature-rich for me. Also it's free.

    maybe try setting entropia and clientloader executables to run in windows 7 compatibility mode? :biggrin2:

    http://www.laptopmag.com/articles/set-compatibility-mode-windows-10

    it was also suggested for windows 8 on http://www.entropialife.com/HelpCenter.aspx:
    Windows 8:
    a) Find Entropia.exe, right click it, and then select ‘Properties’.
    b) A the top of the Properties page, select the tab [Compatibility].
    c) Under 'Compatibility mode', put a checkmark in the box for the option 'Run this program in compatibility mode for:'.
    d) In the dropdown menu, select 'Windows 7'.
    e) Click Apply, then OK.

    i know, new OS is nice and everything. but like microsoft and mindark you gotta learn that it's sometimes better not to break (improve) things that seem to work nicely.

    everyone as he likes best ofc! :angel:

    I have Win 10, and also got black screenshots when running the game in 64 bit. Changing to 32 bit fixed the issue for me.
