    Some time ago (2019-2020?), someone posted a message and used a really cool tool to do a screen capture or a video of a screen capture or something... How's that for a vague description? I commented on it, but maybe my cp-google-fu is lacking. Any ideas?

          Everyone in our shop uses this: https://www.techsmith.com/[^] We don't use anything else. Costs some money, but not too expensive and worth every penny. Camtasia and Snag-it are the main products from TechSmith we use.

              What is it you are actually looking to do? Here's an article I wrote ages ago on TeboScreen: Basic C# Screen Capture Application[^]

              “That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.”

                  I use ShareX[^]. It may be overkill for simple screen capture but it provides lots of functionality and configurability.

                          Windows Game mode?

                          If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

                              Someone - I don't recall if it was you, sorry - asked this question a while back and I mentioned Jing from Techsmith. It's now discontinued and no longer supports video capture (since it used .FLV files). However it still works (so long as you don't have an internet connection when it starts up - when it "phones home" and finds it's dead!) and includes ability to annotate grabs; then either keep it in the clipboard or save directly to a file.

                                          I've also used GreenShot for years - mostly to copy a region on the screen to paste into Teams chats, and occasionally to get save an image I want to load into Gimp for modification. You can change GreenShot's hotkeys, which is useful when Microsoft decides they want whatever choice you made for their use instead.
