    What software can take screenshot every time you click?


    I'm trying to make pdf tutorials. Taking SC one by one is too long. Thank you

    Hi, could you clarify that please?

    Do you mean
    - just of the whole screen?
    - exactly the same area as last time?
    - something else..

    If 1 click creates the screenshot, there's no chance to set the region captured, which is usually the way things work.

    You don't say if you've a laptop or a desktop. Normally laptops have a dedicated key to capture the whole screen- specially useful where moving your mouse or clicking causes something like a tooltip or context menu to disappear.

    Many programs utilize Shift+PrnScr, or similar, for Capture last region.

    Greenshot is one.

    duckcapture (free) offers these keyboard options (and is very good at scrolling capture whihc many fail on):

    Hi there
    @eppixx
    I think you want some type of "session recording" which you can then plug into say a powerpoint / other presentation etc.

    Hi there @Edwin -- This looks like a tool you might use --surprised you haven't mentioned it or does it have problems on your "seriously modded" machines !!!!!.

    However there is actually a Free one in Windows 10 bonkersly called game bar so 99% of people don't even know its there -- you'll have to activate it in Windows features.

    Windows 10 has a built-in free screen recorder that you might not know about

    It records in MP4 format (well a screen IS video) but that works -->PPS (powerpoint format) and you've got your session capture.

    You can then use any bog standard video editor to edit the session - make cuts, just show specific frames etc etc.

    cheers

    The built-in Problem steps recorder does exactly what you have asked for.
    C:\Windows\System32\psr.exe
    Record steps to reproduce a problem - MSSupport

    Greenshot is one of the first things that gets installed, always. Been using it for years!

    Hi there @Edwin
    I think the OP wanted to continuously capture an entire session not just screenshots -- for example it would show me typing this message out if I captured the session , saved the session as a video file and then played it back. The Game bar will also capture audio

    There are other tools but many of them just capture a screen at a time which you have to request via a keystroke -- not capturing continuously like a video --I don't think your application is making a continuous recording session even if I'm doing nothing !!!. It should show my entire screen from the start of the session until I terminate it even if it's just a screen with no activity happening on it. !!!!!! - The recording collects every keystroke too as you can see text moving on the screen -- almost like a Youtube thing without needing a video camera / webcam etc.

    For example If I'm teaching someone how to use photoshop I don't need youtube or anything if I can just capture my entire session. Also problem with youtube or those types of things is that it just gets put up on the Internet --fine for some purposes but for other cases when giving internal or private demos you don't need that type of approach but a user playing back a file individually is far more appropriate.

    Cheers

    The OP asked, "What software can take screenshot every time you click?"
