Keyboards generally don't accept arbitrary key combinations. Change your screenshot key.

Any you like. I can't tell you which will work wth the other you're pressing as all keyboards are different. My Razer Chroma keyboard never showed any key rollover issues. Try whick keys work together on yours.

F12 is Steam's default key for screenshots, so that's probably the one he's already using...

kargor right. i'm using f12 and it was good until i realized this multiple key thing. example i want to take a screenshot while riding horse (like witcher 3) but i can't. nothing happening.

2 keys is probably fine but you can use a 3rd if you prefer.

I changed my to Ctrl + Shift + F12 and so far I've never had any conflicts with it.

The modifier keys are specifically wired in a way so they work with all the other keys; the problem is with "normal" keys, that don't usually need to go together.
