ClipSnap

A lightweight screenshot tool for Windows 10/11 that automatically saves screenshots to a folder.

Why ClipSnap?

Windows 10's built-in screenshot tool (Win+Shift+S) doesn't automatically save screenshots to a folder - you have to manually paste and save them. Windows 11 added this feature, but Windows 10 users are left out. ClipSnap fixes this!

Features

• 📸 Region Selection - Click and drag to capture any area of your screen

• 💾 Auto-Save - Screenshots are automatically saved to your configured folder

• 📋 Clipboard Copy - Optionally copy screenshots to clipboard (toggleable)

• ⌨️ Global Hotkeys - Win+Shift+S and Print Screen (configurable)

• 🖥️ Multi-Monitor Support - Works across all your displays

• 🚀 Start with Windows - Optional auto-start on login

• 🎨 Modern UI - Clean, dark-themed settings interface
