Just curious if I could somehow capture a photo from a YouTube video. Anyone know?

If you are on your phone, you can take a screen shot during the video. I do that often when watching makeup videos to remind myself of colors or makeup I want to buy.

If you are on your laptop/desktop, open up "Snipping Tool"
Play your You Tube video and pause where you want to copy
On the Snipping Tool - select New
Use your cursor to draw a box around what you want to copy
Then Select File - Save As and save with the name you want and location you want on your computer
(you might have to change the file in the drop down box to JPEG)

If you have Windows 10 - right click on the Windows button in the bottom left corner, select search and enter Snipping Tool to find it
If you have a previous version of Windows, click on the Windows button in the bottom left corner and locate Accessories and Snipping Tool will be under Accessories (although the search feature like above should work too).

If you have a previous version of Windows I cannot find it. I feel like a tech failure. |

I am so tech challenged, but it was really important to me to grab this shot of my kid to scrapbook. |
