Here is a list of VSTs/vendors where the screenshot button does not work (I'm on Windows 8.1):

2CAudio: Kaleidoscope
MeldaProduction: MXXX
vladg/sound: Nova67P
Vladislav Goncharov: Limiter6, Molot03
Waves: all
MeterPlugs: Perception

Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Think there is a thread floating around somewhere to report the VST's not showing screenshots then again I may have just imagined it. :?

Just re-read that the screenshot button doesn't capture? The thread I'm talking about captures the screenshot but its white on the device. I have waves audio track and I captured the screenshot on that no problem. Have not encounter any problems with screenshots myself.

One thing to check maybe. Uncheck the read only in the folder properties located @ C:\Users\....\AppData\Local\Propellerhead Software
It is not too much of an ask for people or things to be the best version of itself!

Bet you have a very high res screen?
Lower your screen resolution, take the snapshot it will appear, once you have what you want go back to normal res.

I tried that out but it didn't work.

I don't have all those but I'm not having any problems performing a screencap on Melda plugs or my Waves plugs. I run Windows 10 Professional 64-bit. Is this a Windows 8 issue?

Didn't grab your freebie 10 when it was offered, Ahornberg?

Shame, worked for me when my Arturia ones wouldn't capture, hope you find an answer, I hate those white spaces

I'm just the opposite. I jump into burning buildings and then wonder later, "why is my flesh peeling off?" :)
