ShareX System Requirements

Published by ShareX Team


What we love

1. ShareX has an advanced hotkey system which allows you to use any of these capture methods, upload options or tools with their own task settings.

2. ShareX is a free and open source program that lets you capture or record any area of your screen and share it with a single press of a key.

3. There are many configurable screen capture settings such as showing the cursor, transparent window capture, delayed capture, multiple region selection with different shapes, etc.

4. Workflows allow each hotkey to have its own after capture tasks, after upload tasks, destination etc.

5. For example, you can set your screen recording hotkey to upload to a specific destination, bypassing the default destination.

6. For example, the captured image can be opened in image editor and after that, the image can be automatically saved to the hard disk and uploaded to your destination of choice.

7. ShareX supports many ways to capture or record your screen.

8. For example, the uploaded image URL can be automatically shortened using one of the 15 URL shortener services and the shortened URL can be copied to the clipboard.

9. It also allows uploading images, text or other types of files to over 80 supported destinations you can choose from.

10. This way, only videos will be uploaded to this configured file destination.

11. These are called "Workflows".
