I am new to this forum so I apologize if this has been answered previously. While in "Bank Mode" on a PC, is it possible to take a screenshot? I've tried different ways holding certain keys but to no avail. Thank you for any assistance.

Whilst I don't use the Avast Secure Browser.  So I can't test.

I would think that a Security Based Browser like ASB may look with suspicion on taking screenshots of banking sites.

Hi, yes that is one of the features of Bank Mode. This protects your data from being stolen.

If you want to make a screenshot, you have 2 options:

In Bank Mode...

1) Add a screenshot app to the bank mode environment (taskbar), run it and then you can use it inside the bank mode.

2) Or add mspaint.exe from the System32 folder of Windows. Open it and then you can paste the screenshot that you make via Print Screen key. Save it as a new file on your disk and it's done.
