Screenshots are widely used today, for personal, professional reasons or even as proof of “charge”. Virtually any user has taken a screenshot from either a mobile device or a computer. However, sometimes we want to take a full capture of something that goes off the screen, such as a website visited in your browser.

Surely, you have ever wanted to take a complete capture of a Web page, especially if you dedicate yourself to the world of Web design or the Internet. However, by default, Windows allows you to take screenshots but only of what is displayed on the screen of your computer or laptop. This means that if a visited website is larger than the height of your screen, in order to capture the entire website, you will have to take several screen captures to capture it completely.
However, what many users do not know is that both the Google Chrome web browser and the Mozilla Firefox browser allow, by default, to take complete screenshots in a single image file (scrolling screenshot). This will not require the installation or use of add-ons or programs, although to be honest, the default full-screen capture feature is somewhat hidden.
That said, below we want to show you step by step how to take a screenshot of a complete web page from the Chrome or Firefox browser without using an extension or add-on:
