Thank you for checking that it is enabled.

Sorry for the non-obvious change, but in Firefox 88, Firefox Screenshot stopped being a "Page Action" that you could access from the ••• menu in the address bar. It now has an optional toolbar button ("Browser Action") in addition to right-click context menu integration and the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Shift+S).

More info on where to find that toolbar button in the Customize tab:

hello crm,

as you have windows 10, then you have a fully functional and enhanced screen capturing feature.

so if had existed in FF previously, then I think it was duplicating what windows already provides.

see attached pic.

if you features are set up correctly, you will have an icon of a pen near the clock.

this applications lets you capture screen shots.

you also have an additional windows feature/app called "snipping tool"
