How to take screenshot with mouse pointer ?

[Zarine]

I'd like to take screenshots with the mouse pointer displayed using Steam. I searched through the available options without finding anything that might help.

Do you know how can I take such screenshot ?

Yes, press F12. there is no such thing as screenshot with mouse pointer.

Well F12 make screenshot without... which I don't want as I want to show where my pointer is...

Is there still no solution to this?

Now that's one old necro. What far corner of the warehouse did you find this rotting corpse?

To the topic, though, there isn't one, at least not via Steam. Just about every screenshot solution that I've ever used doesn't capture the cursor, not even Windows built-in Shift-Win-S tool. You'd need a 3rd party software that had that functionality and then it would have to have the ability to grab gaming screenshots.

Any time that I've had to point out something in a screenshot, I add arrows or circles after the fact with Paint or something. Like this one:

So annoying.

It's saying a lot on modern society where appearance (cute snapshot without some ugly cursor) prevails over functionality (snapshot including mouse cursor which is a vital information for any computer usage having some mouse or mouse like device).

Well at least Apple OS aren't so dumb since decades has they have the option. But for Windows as usual Microsoft does crap but it seems there's a way with a recorder included with windows.

But Steam, really, before thinking sell more by allowing cute screenshot of games, Steam should care first to provide a better env to report bugs to dev so they fix games sold before they should have been sold, or at least to support better EA games.
