> You can't even take a screenshot of a Netflix show, thanks to DRM; The windows snipping tool (which got renamed to "Snip & Sketch" at some point) takes screenshots just fine even when Netflix is running in full-screen mode.

off-topic: Under Windows 11 MS renamed "Snip & Sketch" to "Snipping Tool" and replaced to original snipping tool with it. Feels like the gave up to overcome muscle memory. At least i continued using the og snipping tool under windows 10 because in german the new tool was named "Ausschneiden und Skizzieren" and that didn't map to me searching for "sni" and pressing enter.

  Try Win+Shift+S for instant click/drag screenshot to clipboard. I haven't opened the snip tool GUI since I found out. It also has GUI buttons for window/freeform/fullscreen if you ever need that.

    How did I not know about Windows+Shift+S until just now?

    In Windows 11 there's also a setting to make the "Print Screen"-key work in the same way as Win + Shift + S. The setting is called "Use the Print screen button to open screen snipping".

That's probably because you are running Netflix in Google Chrom. The streams are 720P (1280x720) and hava a lower level of DRM. Only Microsoft Edge and natives apps are providing the highest definition available. You can see the stats by pressing CTRL-ALT-SHIFT-D while Netflix is active.
