How to take a snapshot, screenshot or capture frames with 5KPlayer using Keyboard shortcuts and with right click.Ever watching a movie or a video and find a spot you will like to have an image of, Yep. Actually you can take a snapshot, capture frames of the position or take a screenshot using the 5KPlayer either using a keyboard shortcut or by right clicking on 5KPlayer window.
So first of all, let’s determine the default location where saved images should be kept.
1. Launch the 5KPlayer.
2. Press F2 to take you to Preferences or settings OR on the of 5KPlayer window, close to the quit button, you will see an icon, click on it and then select Settings
3. The Settings window will be opened.

6. To change the default folder, Click on the icon with full stop, a window (Select a Screenshot Folder) will appear, go the location where you want your images to be saved by default (I prefer to create a folder in the Pictures Folder named 5KPlayer).
7. Then click on Select Folder.
