This outstanding freeware application makes capturing and editing screenshot images a breeze. MWSnap may come with an uninspired-looking interface, but it gets the job done without hassle. 

MWSnap is known for its flexibility in capturing images. Here’s a breakdown of what it offers:

  • Variety of Capture Modes: It can grab the whole desktop, specific windows, menus, or custom areas.
  • Supports Several Image Formats: Works with BMP, JPG, TIFF, PNG, and GIF.
  • Ease of Use: Offers system-wide hotkeys and a clipboard for quick copying and pasting.
  • Precision Tools: Comes with a zoom, a ruler, and a color picker to help you capture details accurately.

More features include:

  • It can save and print automatically to help you manage your workflow.
  • It starts on its own when Windows boots up and can stay minimized in the system tray for convenience.
  • It has a list of preset sizes which is great for making detailed images like icons.

MWSnap is user-friendly and lightweight. It does not require installation. This means it won't add any new files that could slow down your computer. It’s a stand-alone tool that you can use for capturing screen images without any hassle.

Its useful and very user-friendly features require no special expertise. You can capture a fixed or selected area of your screen, a particular window or menu, or the entire desktop. You can also set the application to automatically save after capturing. Bonus features include an onscreen ruler, a desktop magnifier, a window-information tool, and a color picker. MWSnap also lets you modify images by flipping or rotating them, and by adding a variety of frames and cursor shapes. It's an excellent choice for everyone from casual to experienced users.

Bottom Line

With features like a quick image viewer and a customizable interface, MWSnap is more than just a screenshot tool. It boosts productivity and provides a straightforward user experience, making it a go-to utility for Windows users who need efficient screen capturing capabilities.

Developer’s Description

By Mirek Wojtowicz
Replace the simple Print Screen tool with an advanced screenshot maker.
MWSnap is a small yet powerful Windows program for snapping (capturing) images from selected parts of the screen. Current version is capable of capturing the whole desktop, a highlighted window, an active menu, a control, or a fixed or free rectangular part of the screen. MWSnap handles five most popular graphics formats and contains several graphical tools: a zoom, a ruler, a color picker, and a window spy. It can be also used as a fast picture viewer or converter. MWSnap does not require installation and does not need any special DLLs, drivers, or system files, which can mess up your system.
