It’s not a dumb question at all! I totally get how frustrating it can be to have to confirm admin permissions for Lightshot every time you start your PC, especially when some games won’t let you print without those permissions. Have you tried setting it to always run as an administrator? That might save you some hassle.

I’ve been using ShareX on Windows, but when I was on Linux, I think I was just using the built-in KDE screenshot tool. It worked pretty well for what I needed!
gonna try the shareX
IrfanView lets you take many screenshots by pressing two keys, while you have something else on screen.
If the print button still causes problem, maybe your account isn’t set as ‘Administrator’ and belongs to ‘User’ group instead.
Its set as adm, but some games also run as adm so they just dont let me print if the program is not running as adm too
ShareX, the level of customization is amazing.
Windows builtin Snipping tool is perfect for me.
I feel a big delay when I use snipping tool
I’m happy with Irfanview, which has a ton of options for screenshots.
I used to have this issue as well, now I am using Gyazo, not as good as Lightshot but works pretty well.
Looks like it was just a skill issue on my part! I figured out how to use Task Scheduler to automatically run ShareX with admin permissions, so I’m sure it would work for Lightshot too.
