Saving a screenshot
You can use Amazon DCV to save a screenshot of the Amazon DCV session. This functionality is available on the Windows, web browser, Linux, and macOS clients.
Important
You must be authorized to use this feature. If you aren't authorized, the functionality isn't available in the client. For more information, see Configuring Amazon DCV Authorization in the Amazon DCV Administrator Guide.
Note
If you aren't authorized to save screenshots, the client also avoids the external tools that are running on your client computer to capture a screenshot of the Amazon DCV client. Images that are obtained by these tools either show a black rectangle instead of the Amazon DCV client window or only show the background desktop. This screenshot protection is available only on Windows and macOS clients.
Launch the client, and connect to the Amazon DCV session. The steps depend on the client used.
