Solved Lightshot on windows 11


Must be the 24H2 update. I'll confirm when I get it. You need to be an insider to do so?

Thanks
24H2 is not for Windows standard public release, it’s for insiders only?
If you are not using an insiders build and you’re trying to install 24H2, to my understanding you are asking for trouble.

    …still on a horse.
One would assume with the snipping toggle set to off, and Lightshot setting set to use the Print Screen key, it would just work. But of course, nothing is ever easy.
It doesn't. That was the point of this thread

I know… I was just reiterating.
So, about 24H2, you said you spent an hour trying to install it (not sure why) have you restored a backup since, of pre 24H2 attempt?

I was trying to help someone else in this forum that loaded 24H2 (he had no insiders channel) and he wondered why his computer was doing things it shouldn’t or not doing things it should.

It restored to the previous 23H2 by itself after it failed. Probably closer to 25 mins I exaggerated :)

The 24H2 hung 2x during a reboot. I optd out of the insider program to prevent further attempts.
