Not able to take screenshot in macbook - Catalina OS I have checked the system preferences for the keyboard shortcuts, and all are selected for screen shots. I have attempted restarting the computer. I have ensured that the software is up to date. Any help or suggestions to help restore the ability to take screenshots would be appreciated.

Shortcut for screenshot stopped working, how can I get it back? Has this happened to anyone else? All of a sudden the shift + command + 3 stopped working to screenshot my screen on my Mac. What other shortcut could I use for screenshot or how can I fix this?
