ShareX - The best free and open source screenshot tool for Windows[^]
I wouldn't even bother to write one (though if you wanted to play with it, the source code is in C#.) It's fantastic, and has a configurable "workflow" - copy to clipboard, save to file, etc.
So my recommendation is, just have your users download it or similar free products already out there.

The users aren't supposed to see anything for the screen shot - I will likely put up a "sent" message after I SMTP the file but the idea is to minimize their participation (i.e., need to think).

Ya know, I wrote a WPF customizable Message box article, and I was toying with making the MessageBoxImage icon clickable (in fact, I have most of the mechanicals for it are already implemented. The action performed in response to the click could be anything you want, such as sending the displayed error message to the support team, or even taking a screenshot, if that's what you really want to do. I personally think a detailed and properly crafted error message would be better, but hey, that's just me.

The problem is: Who is going to write that carefully crafted error message ?
The brain-trust that make up the typical employee cadre where I work, and probably most anyplace that that isn't full of techies, can hardly frame a valid question if it's not a text message in both quality and utility.
Or, as I should have put it: the dumb asses don't know how to do anything and, working from home, no one is around to hold their hand to get them through it.
So - of course - what you think should be done would really be great. If only there were someone on the other end who can handle it.
Note: Screen-capture part finally worked out to my satisfaction. SMTP mail is next.

Passover cleaning, spring cleaning, and hay fever. Are these reasons for celebration?!
(Yes, I spotted the pun)

Well, in this climate, Passover coincides with Spring and (at least once per year) one is induced to clean ones house.
As for hay fever - perhaps I forgot to mention I have a great deal of stock in Kleenex?
I just think you have shoveled enough snow to understand how nice it is to see crocus' start to push through the ground an bloom (even if it is snow-covered) - and the smell of the air is not the bite of cold in your nose but the symbolic renewal of life.
I can help you - should you be around here in the winter and it snows, you can try your hand at the fine are of shoveling; if you drive, the unspeakable thrill of spinning out on "black ice". However, no pollen.

Not to worry, I am saving one of the ties I received to send to you next year.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

In that case I won't start shopping for 362 days.
