It can be deployed on all Windows versions out there, provided that you Java working environment installed on the target computer.

You can take advantage of the utility’s portability status and keep it stored on pen drives or other portable devices so you can carry it with you all the time. You may open without being an administrator. You can run it directly from the storage device.

Gaining access to its set of features can be done by double-clicking on the executable file because you do not have to go through the preset steps included in an installation process. Since it does not store entries in your Windows registry and create additional configuration files, you may uninstall it by deleting the files that you have downloaded from the Internet.

CaptureEdit can be found running quietly in the system tray without disturbing your activity with annoying popup messages and other types of notifications. You can access its configuration settings by right-clicking on the tray icon.

The application offers you the possibility to take screenshots via the system tray or with the aid of a preset hotkey. What’s more, you are given the freedom to select the area of the desktop that you want to capture.

The snapshots can be exported to JPG or PNG file format, provided that you specify a saving folder and filename. Other important options worth being mentioned enable you to copy the captured image to the clipboard so you can quickly paste it into other third-party utilities and edit screenshots with the aid of several tools.

Images can be altered by embedding custom text messages, drawing free-hand designs with the aid of a brush, highlighting a custom area, and inserting arrows and lines. Plus, you can change the color of the editing tools and undo or redo your actions.

CaptureEdit provides a simple software solution for taking and editing screenshots, and is suitable especially for less experienced users.
