Not many seemed to care to click the link in that thread. If one did one would know that it was to a bug report and a fix was even posted in the same link. Screenshots work just fine.

- eps 6y agoNot many seemed to read through the bug report either. The bug report was for not being able to screenshot in situations when it wasn't actually disabled. The fundamental problem that the GP is referring to and that demonstrates the loss of control over one's own devices is that it _is_ possible for apps to disable making of screenshots to begin with.
