📸 Screenshot Capture Tool

A simple Python tool that captures your screen and automatically saves it with a timestamped filename.
This project is perfect for logging visual data, monitoring screen changes, or quickly taking snapshots.


📜 What the Script Does

  • Captures a full-screen screenshot of your current display.
  • Automatically generates a timestamped filename (e.g., screenshot_2025-10-11_22-05-30.png).
  • Saves the screenshot in a folder called Screenshots, which is automatically created if it doesn’t exist.
  • Auto-detects Python version and uses the best compatible library (pyautogui for ≤3.12, mss for 3.13+).
  • Prints a success message showing where the file was saved.

🛠️ How to Run the Script

Prerequisites

Make sure you have Python 3 installed.
Install the required libraries:
