I'm trying to save screenshot of all the open windows on windows 7.
Issue is that instead of getting screenshot of open windows, it's giving me cmd.exe screenshot. (For example instead of taking google chrome screenshot it shows black cmd.exe screenshot).
I tried the same code on windows 10 before and it seemed to be working.
I have used following code from the http://www.developerfusion.com/code/4630/capture-a-screen-shot/ to get the screenshot of a particular window.
namespace ScreenShotDemo

/// <summary>

Any help is appreciated.
I finally found the issue.
I had changed windows 7 settings for best performance, once I changed it to normal Aero settings. It works as expected.

This question already has answers here:
Capture screenshot of active window?
(13 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I am trying to capture the screen using Visual Studio 12 (sorry, we have to use 12) cand C#.
I found an algorithm here: Capture screenshot of active window?
ScreenCapture sc = new ScreenCapture();
I tried this and got an error message that the type or namespace is not found.
This is not unexpected. I figured I just need another "using..." statement up at the top.
I tried to do a search for which package to do a "using" on to get ScreenCapture() but I come up empty handed. Does anyone know?
I think it is probably giving you an error around using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
You need to add the reference of the DLL System.Runtime.InteropServices
This lib doesn't seem to exist on NuGet. However, you can find it at Developer Fusion.
The downloads section only includes a zip file with the following class, that you can copy-paste in your VS Project

According to the documentation you need to use Windows.Media.Capture. Please note that
Important
The ScreenCapture feature is only supported for mobile devices running Windows Phone 8.1. This API is not supported on Windows 10.
You can check this answer which works on all windows desktop platforms.
I am trying to implement the functionality of taking screenshot and sending the capture to printer. No need to implement the print functionality,user will decide whether to print or cancel that particular document. After digging around the internet and tweaking it to my requirement I am able to save the screenshot locally but unable to send it to printer.

ScreenCapture sc = new ScreenCapture();
// capture entire screen, and save it to a file

Purpose: Mirror a window of an external process by capturing images from this window and presenting the images in a picturebox using a timer.
Problem: When my application is in focus, everything happens fine! But if I switch the focus to the other window (not from my application), the picturebox stops refreshing the images. When I focus on my application again, everything returns to normal.
Limitation: I need the picturebox to continue updating even though my application is in the background.
Timer to capture images and show in picturebox:

pictureBox1.BackgroundImage = PrintScreen.CaptureWindow(GAME_MainHandle);

But I get an "No process is associated with this object". Could anyone help?
Or mb other ideas how to run new browser window whith specified size and location?
Oh, I fiend a solution! But, it works (in my system, at least) only whith IE...
We need to wait, until the Windows associate a window with process. Like this:
while (browserProc.MainWindowHandle == IntPtr.Zero)//пока винда не ассоциировала окно с процессом
{
Thread.Sleep(50);// ждём 50 мс
browserProc.Refresh();// обновялем процесс
}
And then we can obtain MainWindowHandle.
