You might have tried several tools to capture desktop screen or an active window, sometimes part of the screen which has got an interesting image. Surely it is not so easy to complete the job with old Windows screen capture methods. But, you can do this by just pressing the ‘PrintScreen’ button on your keyboard and selecting the area of interest by mouse pointer with Gadwin PrintScreen software. You can follow these steps given as screen shots below. Select the preference button and keep the hot key option as ‘PrintScreen’. Set the source as you require. I selected ‘Rectangular Area’ to capture part of a window. Decide your destination folder and image formats. Here common image formats BMP, JPG,GIF,PNG and TIF. If you need to resize the image to a specific size, give width and height details. Leave all other fields as default.
Essential Freeware/Shareware Applications for your Windows Desktop
Word processors, spreadsheets, presentation tools, database and internet tools are essential components of a desktop PC now-a-days. Most of the users never give attention to setup a fully working computing environment by installing essential software for their regular use. Installation of a software is usually done when they forced to install any of them to open a file which is downloaded from Internet or to open a video or an applet on a web page. My opinion is that install all the essential software immediately after the installation of the OS. It may be difficult to get and install all of them together, but make a schedule and install them without much delay. If you search for a virus scanner only after an attack from an internet source, it is difficult for you to continue your work. So keep all essential things ready, so there may not be much trouble with regular computing. Some of the most important software from freeware/shareware category are listed out here and which are downloadable free from their respective sites. Read the details about the software given below and selection part is up to you as per your requirement. Read more
