Grabbing the whole screen when you only need one window means cropping afterward. Both Windows and Mac can capture a single window directly.
Windows
Click the window to focus it, then press Alt + PrtScn. The active window is copied to your clipboard. Paste it straight into sshot.online with Ctrl + V to get a link.
Mac
Press Cmd + Shift + 4, then tap Space. The cursor becomes a camera — click the window you want and it captures just that window, with a subtle shadow.
Share it in one step
- Capture the window (clipboard on Windows, a file on Mac).
- Open sshot.online and paste or drop it.
- Copy the link and share it anywhere.
For an even faster flow on web pages, the browser extension selects a region and returns a link in one click. Full platform shortcuts are in our screenshot shortcuts guide. Free, no account.
