A feature-filled screen capture app with support for scrolling pages.

GreenShot really provides an easy and convenient to capture and then edit screen captures well to edit them in its built-in image editor.

It has four key combinations for different ways of recording the images on your PC screen. PRNTSCRN to capture the screen, Shift/PRNTSCRN for the last region selected, Alt/PRNTSCRN to record the active window and CTRL/PRNTSCRN to capture the full.

When you're capturing a part of the screen, then what has been captured is no secret as it changes color. Once the capture has been made, you should hear a camera click sound.

Once you've made the capture, it goes to an editor which allows you to add annotations, arrows, boxes, text and more.

You can also predefine the path to store the image files and which format/extension to use: JPEG, BMP, PNG and GIF, plus the quality of the image you've captured with GreenShot.
