MWSnap is a small yet powerful Windows program for snapping (capturing) images from selected parts of the screen. If something on the screen is too small you can always magnify it and capture it that way. MWSnap seems to be able to capture just about anything too – any size, shape or form. This is brilliant for when you are filling in forms online and need to keep the details safe – just one click and it’s all saved automatically. However, one of the most useful features specific to MWSnap is the autosave feature. It can save images in all of the major image formats (JPG, BMP, TIFF, PNG and GIF) and also includes a zoom, a ruler and a colour picker. MWSnap is a small but powerful screen capture program capable of taking whole desktop shots, a highlighted window, an active menu or a fixed or free rectangular part of the screen. At Softonic, we usually use SnagIt to take screenshots but MWSnap does the job equally as well and best of all, it’s completely free. You can use them to highlight a certain aspect of a program to friends, make presentations or explain a technical problem you’re having. Screen captures are useful for various reasons.
