How to disable snipping tool for plain screenshot?

I would like to use the print screen button for a plain screenshot without using the snipping tool as that is an extra step. Can anyone assist? I imagine Lenovo has assigned that specific function to that key. I have turned off the snipping tool in the keyboard options, but it does not stop the snipping tool.

Welcome to the Community, LL3217!

Glad to assist!

That is more on Windows-side or software issue. 

The Windows settings does not have this option as well as the tool itself, if you want to do it in more advance like Group Policy editor, here is the link

Note: Be careful with your edits. 

Tip: Ctrl Alt Print Screen will only do 1 window/specific target only.
