CodeWarrior ScreenShot

CodeWarrior ScreenShot is an easy-to-use program designed to capture footage recorded by your webcam as well as to grab the entire screen and save it as an image file on the computer. It features just a couple of intuitive options that can be tackled with ease by all sorts of users, even those less skilled with snapshot utilities.

Needs .NET Framework to work properly

The entire package relies on a single .exe file that you can copy anyplace on the hard disk or to an external storage device to effortlessly launch it on any computer.
It doesn't generate other files aside from grabbed images, nor does it update the registry with new entries. However, it was developed with the aid of .NET Framework, so make sure to download and install this software framework unless you already have it.

Capture webcam footage or the entire screen

The interface of CodeWarrior ScreenShot is represented by a standard .NET Framework form and adds little of its own. It shows two buttons for taking a webcam shot and capturing the entire desktop, along with a third one for recording an image and transforming it into an .ico file to be able to assign it as an icon to various files or folders.

Auto-names files to continuously grab shots

It's necessary to manually start your webcam device before taking a shot, since the program cannot do this automatically. All files are automatically saved in the C: drive. The first one gets the "codewarrior" name, while the remaining ones are numerically incremented, so it's possible to take a series of screenshots before ending your session.

Evaluation and conclusion

Unfortunately, CodeWarrior ScreenShot hasn't received updates for a long time, and this is probably why we've encountered various errors both at startup and during its runtime. It failed to take snapshots in several cases while successfully carrying out tasks in others. The tool likely has compatibility issues with newer Windows models. Too bad it's unstable.
