TrontSnap 0.12.0 (portable)

Portable single exe. Download TrontSnap.exe, run it anywhere, delete it to uninstall. No install, no admin, no signing.

Capture: PrtSc = full screen, Ctrl+PrtSc = region picker (scroll the wheel to resize the magnifier loupe), Ctrl+Shift+PrtSc = screen recording. Left-click the tray icon for an instant region grab.

New in 0.12.0

• Dynamic color themes. A new Appearance section in Settings: pick a custom accent color, choose from 32 premade palettes, or hit Randomize. Every theme is generated with smart WCAG contrast, so text stays readable on any color, and the whole app restyles live (chrome, tabs, gallery, region-picker loupe). The default stays classic cyan; your choice persists.

Also in the 0.11.0 line

• Rebindable global hotkeys, scrollwheel-resizable region loupe, sectioned Settings, single-row chrome, focused About.

TrontSnap 0.10.0 (portable)

TrontSnap 0.10.0: now a portable single exe.

Use it

1. Download trontsnap.exe below.
2. Run it. It drops into the tray and applies your hotkeys. No install, no admin, no reboot.
3. Press PrtSc (full), Ctrl+PrtSc (freeze-frame region), or Ctrl+Shift+PrtSc (record). Or left-click the tray icon.

Uninstall is just deleting the exe. To run it automatically, tick "Start at login" in the tray menu.

What changed

Rebuilt to use RegisterHotKey (the same approach ShareX uses) instead of a low-level keyboard hook, so its hotkeys fire over elevated windows without the app needing any elevation. That let me drop the code-signing, the Program Files install, and the admin prompt entirely. On first run it frees the PrtSc key via the per-user PrintScreenKeyForSnippingEnabled setting (reversible), exactly like ShareX.

Requires Windows 10/11 x64.

TrontSnap 0.9.0

TrontSnap v0.9.0: fast screenshots + recording for Windows.

Install

1. Download TrontSnap.zip below and extract it.
2. Double-click Install TrontSnap.cmd, approve the one admin prompt. No reboot.
3. It sits in the tray and starts on login. Press PrtSc / Ctrl+PrtSc / Ctrl+Shift+PrtSc, or left-click the tray icon.

New in 0.9.0

• Hotkeys now fire over elevated windows (a signed uiAccess build) without the app itself becoming an administrator, so drag-out keeps working.
• Distinct rainbow capture-frame icon.

Requires Windows 10/11 x64 and a local admin account (one prompt, install-time only).
