Are you on windows?
Here’s a test, if you are:
- press prntscr on your desktop and paste it into paint
- open a roblox game, press prntscr and paste it into paint
notice a difference?
Windows 10.
I don’t notice a difference. Am I overlooking something?
I just want it to
- Not have a popup
- Print the screen to my clipboard so I can Ctrl+V in discord or something.
Did the image of the roblox window paste into paint?
I’m kind of confused because I don’t get that popup. Press the ‘Never show this again’ button?
The client does still freeze for a second, and the visual cue in the bottom right still shows up in sequential screenshots.
Well yeah and it pasted my 2nd monitor screen as well, exactly as Windows usually behaves.
Regardless of your experience with Roblox not screwing it up, others like myself have experienced it, and it is very aggravating.

This is a recent change in windows 10. Roblox used to eat the print-screen and you couldn’t paste it into paint; it’d only show up in the MyPictures folder. Now I can paste it in paint - with the change that it pastes the whole desktop including the game window. Before, to get the roblox client pasteable into paint, you had to lose focus by clicking the desktop in windowed mode.

This doesn’t seem useful as it stands. It would be nice if we add a notification when you take a screenshot, and you could somehow click on that to share the screenshot on Roblox.
I would like to see Roblox’s visual cue for screenshots be like the one Android has where a white box tweens from the corners of the screen and back out in about half a second(if you have an Android phone, you know what I’m talking about). It’s not very intrusive and is a very simple cue. They also have a shutter sound play to give an audio cue as well. With the cue only being half a second or so, it’s not likely that a normal user would happen to take multiple screenshots that quickly that they have the cue visible as well.

Every time I take a screenshot this stupid message pops up. I press dont show again and the next day it pops up again >:( its the worst when your client legit freezes when in fullscreen because you cant do anything then.
I found that when this happens and your client freezes up, if you press shift five times it bring up the sticky key menu which allows you to move your mouse

Unless you have the sticky key menu disabled (I have) 
the pop up is so annoying >: (
kill it now. i hate it.
i accidentally pressed screenshot and the popup window somehow appeared BEHIND the roblox window and i didnt realize this so i assumed roblox just crashed and i had to control+alt+delete out of a VERY IMPORTANT territory conquest game because of this. awful user experience.
There’s already a black bar that appears when you take a screenshot, just remove the pop-up and it should be fine!
I have a change which fixes this which will be released soon.
