Easy Screen Recorder

Overview

EasyScreenRecorder collapses record, screenshot, annotate, review, trim and convert into a single, calm window. Defaults are tuned to produce clean, smooth video on the first try; when you need control, frame rate, codec, quality, watermark and hotkeys are all one click away.

Three promises define the product: it won’t lose your work, it won’t slow you down, and it won’t make you think. Press Print Screen, choose capture or record, and go.

Key Features

• Crash-resistant recording — fragmented MP4 keeps what you captured through a power cut, a freeze or a mis-click
• Record anything — full screen, region, window, a single display, webcam, follow-the-mouse or audio only
• Screen pen — draw while you record: pen, chalk, marker, brush, highlighter, arrow and rectangle
• Screenshots in the same window — capture, annotate, adjust and pin
• Built-in player and tools — trim, convert to GIF, compress or extract audio, with nothing extra to download
• Scheduled recording — starts on time, stops at your chosen length and can repeat daily

Your Work Survives the Worst Day

A standard MP4 writes its index last, so if recording does not end cleanly the entire video is unplayable. EasyScreenRecorder records to fragmented MP4, flushing a self-contained chunk roughly every two seconds. Interrupted mid-session, you lose only the last few seconds; stopped normally, it losslessly remuxes to a standard MP4 that plays everywhere.

• Segment-to-disk for marathon sessions — a new file every 1–720 minutes, each openable the instant it closes and losslessly joinable afterwards
• One-click repair — if a previous session ended badly, the app flags those files on next launch
• Checks before you start — live audio level meters and pre-flight warnings, plus an estimated recordable duration for your current settings

Stay in Control While Recording

• A floating bar with timer, pause, snapshot, preview and stop — it never appears in the video
• Mouse highlight, click effects, keystroke display and an elapsed-time overlay
• Text and image watermarks, and webcam picture-in-picture
• Chalk, marker and brush pens — chalk with grain and ragged edges, a chisel-tip translucent marker, and a brush that thins with speed; fourteen colours, three weights, with a live synthesized writing sound that rides into the video when system sound is on
• Pre-roll countdown, custom global hotkeys, and launch at startup that waits quietly in the tray

Screenshot and Annotate

• Press Print Screen for full screen, region, window, single display or current window, with an optional 3 / 5 / 10-second delay
• Mark up with rectangle, ellipse, arrow, pen, highlighter, text, mosaic and numbered steps
• Pin any shot on top of the desktop for side-by-side reference
• Built-in image viewer with zoom, pan and paging; adjust brightness, contrast, saturation and hue; rotate, flip, grayscale, pixelate and resize, with full undo and redo

Built for the Modern Desktop

• Per-monitor DPI aware — a laptop at 100% beside an external 4K display at 150% keeps regions aligned and output sharp; rotated displays are straightened before capture
• Hardware encoding — prefers your GPU (Media Foundation, NVIDIA NVENC, Intel QuickSync) for lower CPU use, quieter fans and longer sessions
• Fast with large libraries — thumbnails, search and date grouping over an unlimited recordings list

Easy From the First Minute

• A three-step first run: pick a scope, check your sound, hit start
• Common controls out front; codec and frame rate under More settings
• Searchable settings (Ctrl + F), one-click restore to defaults, and options that gray out while recording and tell you why
• Quick sizes for 1080p, 720p, vertical short video and square; a clean monochrome theme or a warm alternative

Who’s Recording With It

• Trainers and educators — webcam picture-in-picture plus the chalk pen, and scheduled recording that archives live classes automatically
• Product and QA teams — reproduce bugs with keystroke display and click effects, then annotate and pin for line-by-line review
• IT and operations — long-form monitoring sliced into files by time; a power cut costs only the last few seconds
• Content creators — one-tap vertical and square sizes, trim the intro and outro, convert to GIF, publish

Free to Try, Pro When You’re Ready

• Recording, screenshots, annotation, pin-to-desktop, crash-resistant recording, the built-in player and video tools are all included
• Watermark-free recordings for the first 10 days; after that, unregistered recordings carry a small “Unregistered” watermark
• Registration removes the watermark for good and unlocks high-quality export (higher quality and frame rate); it is a one-time registration, activated online in seconds

Editions and Requirements

• 64-bit (recommended) — everything above, including remux to standard MP4, segment joining, file repair, the built-in player and the trim / GIF / compress / extract-audio tools, with FFmpeg bundled
• 32-bit — recording, screenshots, annotation, pinning and crash-resistant recording; uses the system player, without the FFmpeg-based tools
• Platform — Windows 10 and 11 with Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6.2 or later
• Languages — Simplified Chinese and English
