Screenshot tool for Windows Free
A free screenshot tool for Windows lives in the tray and waits for a hotkey: an area, a window or a whole screen on any monitor. The editor opens right away, and the result goes to the clipboard, to a file or to a short link. No sign-up.

What the Windows screenshot tool does
01
Always in the tray
There is no main window: the icon next to the clock is the whole app. It starts with the system and waits for a hotkey.
02
Area, window or screen
Drag a frame, pick a single window or take the whole monitor: the screenshot is taken where you work, on any connected screen.
03
Annotations and a link
Arrows, boxes, numbering, text and blur go onto the frame, then to the clipboard, to a file on disk or to a short link to a view page.
