Keep the moment.

Current game or window selects the application you have brought forward. Unknown games can be selected by their visible window name. Selected-window capture never changes itself into whole-desktop capture.

Game sound follows the selected process where Windows supports it. All PC sound is clearly named because it can include voice chat, browsers and notifications. Sound can also be Off.

Microphone and camera require your choice. Enable an available device and make a ten-second local test before a long session. Optional push-to-talk and microphone gain stay in Settings.

Choose 30 or 60 frames per second and a quality preset. Actual acquired frames depend on the display, source, driver and available hardware. A registered hardware encoder is probed; a short test checks the real source.

Crop, rotate or resize a screenshot. Add arrows, rectangles, circles, a pen, lines, text, numbered callouts or highlights. Undo and redo while working.

Blur and pixelate help presentation. Opaque Redact paints over selected pixels in the exported copy. Save Copy flattens the visible edits into a new PNG or JPEG. Keep an unredacted original private.

For video, choose the useful range, split at the playhead, remove an inside section or join compatible clips. Adjust export sound, rotate the picture and optionally add a title.

Choose portrait, square or landscape framing and preview the manual position before export. Short local GIF export is available for small, silent animated clips. Originals remain unchanged.

Choose the start and end of a clip, adjust its sound, and export a new H.264/AAC MP4. The estimated size changes with the selected range and quality.

Portrait, square and landscape choices include a framing preview. Position the crop before saving. A short GIF export also appears in My Captures.

Play, pause and seek without installing another player. Click a frame thumbnail to jump to that part of the recording.

Your original remains available while you edit a copy. Copy the file or show it in its folder when you are ready to use it elsewhere.

Browse thumbnails, search names, sources, dates and tags, and filter screenshots, videos, replays or favourites. Sorting and paged results keep large libraries usable.

Open a capture to preview it. Copy the image, copy the file, copy its path or show it in Explorer. Rename and export to a new file name; deletion uses the Windows Recycle Bin.

A full recording can carry bookmarks. Video preview provides playback and seeking, and can save a selected frame as a still image. Independent audio files remain available beside the mixed recording.

Preview can open existing Image Toolkit, Image Composer, File Converter, Presentation Studio or Email through Desktop Command Centre when applicable. The selected local path is copied, with a clear instruction to use that product’s Add, Open or Attach command.

The current shared route does not accept a file-import parameter. The recorder explains that manual step instead of claiming an automatic import. Each destination retains its own sign-in, compatibility and access rules.

Backup Utility can protect the saved capture folders using its existing folder setup. Screen Manager remains the separate product for arranging displays. Website Capture Suite remains the separate product for website capture.

Opening a related application does not start a paid or AI operation. Any operation in another product remains a separate, deliberate choice under that product’s rules.
