Pasting images into forums

• Nov 9, 2022 - 15:58

It would be helpful to be able to paste images into forums. As it is, I have to take the screenshot (with Win+Shift+S) and paste it into Paint (or open it in Snip & Sketch and save it) before uploading it. In the GitHub forums, this is possible.

If this isn't the right place for a forum feature request, sorry.

On Windows, your screenshot should already saved automatically, no need to use a separate program for that.

But yeah, would be nice not to need to open the file.

I found it. Win+Shift+S copies to the clipboard but also (temporarily) puts it in %LocalAppData%\Packages\Microsoft.ScreenSketch_8wekyb3d8bbwe\TempState
(if you want, replace %LocalAppData% with C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local

This has changed twice in the past three-ish years, so in a year or two this path might be wrong. Also, for some reason, it only seems to put it here after you open it in Snip & Sketch.
