Does Origin have any built in screenshot functionality?

Arqade Asked on November 27, 2020

Origin is trying to edge its way onto Steam’s turf, which seems to have been one of the major reasons for keeping Mass Effect 3 an Origin (and console!) exclusive.

Thing is, I use Steam for a lot more than simply buying games – I’ve also fallen in love with the Steam Screenshot service.

Does Origin have anything comparable? Or will I have to rely on third party software (like FRAPS, or… even running Origin through Steam?) to get my screenshots?

Origin does not support screenshots. You will have to use FRAPS or Steam to make them or the game's functionality if there is any.

What i have become accustomed to doing is having microsoft paint open when i play my games. When i do good in a match and im looking at the scoreboard i can just do a Print Screen and paste it into paint where i save it as an image. Its not very conveniant but hey, at least its something!

Although not provided by Origin itself, this shortcut works inside all Origin games:

  • press Win+PrtScn

This will not produce any sound nor visual effect and screenshots of all games are saved in the same folder: %USERPROFILE%PicturesScreenshots.

Using Windows 10 version 1909 and Origin Version 10.5.63.
