  • Start the application with command line options
  • Schedule screen capture sessions on certain days
  • Turn on demo mode to preview screen captures
  • Supports BMP, EMF, GIF, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and WMF
  • Captures up to a maximum of four displays
  • Captures the active window
  • Limit the number of screenshots being captured
  • Destination folder can now be specified
  • Slideshow now includes a skip feature

  • Open and close main window from system tray icon
  • Select image format from system tray icon
  • Add editors and select which editor to use to edit a screenshot
  • Keylogger text file output shows title of active application

Screenshots are organized in chronological order under folders that represent the date when the screen capture sessions occurred. For example, if your destination folder is "C:\My Screenshots" and today's date is November 2 of 2016 then a folder named "2016-11-02" will be created in the "My Screenshots" folder when a screen capture session is started. Inside that folder will be sub-folders representing the screen which the screenshots are taken from. These folders are simply named 1, 2, 3, and 4 depending on how many displays are being captured. The "5" folder is reserved for screenshots of the active window. So if you look inside "C:\My Screenshots\2016-11-02\1" it will show you the screenshots of the first display, "C:\My Screenshots\2016-11-02\2" will show you the screenshots of the second display, "3" contains the screenshots of the third display, "4" contains the screenshots of the fourth display, and "5" contains the screenshots of the active window. Each screenshot image file is date-stamped and time-stamped in the format "[year]-[month]-[day]_[hour]-[minute]-[second]-[microsecond]" using a 24-hour time format. For example, "2016-11-02_10-15-00-784.png" is a PNG image taken at 10:15am on November 2, 2016.

You can start Auto Screen Capture from a command prompt. This is useful if you want to run it on a server and don't want to have the application's main window appear. Not only can you specify the destination folder for the screenshots, but you can also specify the image format, the image ratio, start time, and stop time.
