Description
A plea...
Deanna and I have been running this site since 2008 and lately we're seeing a big increase in
users (and cost) but a decline in percentage of users who donate. Our ad-free and junkware-free
download site only works if everyone chips in to offset the revenue that ads on other sites bring
in. Please donate at the bottom of the page. Every little bit helps. Thank you so much.
Sincerely,
your Older Geeks: Randy and Deanna

Greenshot v1.3.315

👉 A free, fast and flexible screenshot tool with built-in editing and sharing options.

Greenshot is a free and open-source screenshot utility designed for quick and efficient screen capturing on Windows systems. It allows users to capture full screens, active windows, or selected regions with ease, and provides built-in editing tools to annotate, highlight, or obfuscate parts of the image. Greenshot integrates seamlessly with various destinations such as file saving, clipboard, printers, and third-party applications, making it ideal for productivity, documentation, and support workflows.




Features:
• Capture full screen, active window, or user-defined region
• Capture Internet Explorer content including scrolling pages
• Built-in image editor with annotation tools
• Add text, shapes, arrows, and highlights to screenshots
• Obfuscate sensitive information with blur or pixelation
• Save to file, copy to clipboard, print, or email directly
• Upload to services like Imgur and integrate with Office apps
• Customizable hotkeys for fast capture workflows
• Plugin support for additional functionality
• Efficient performance with minimal system impact
• Multi-language user interface
• Open-source and actively maintained

Supported operating systems:
Windows 8/10/11
(Windows 8 may ask to install .NET 3.5. You can skip this.)

Supported languages:
English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Czech, Polish, Hungarian, Turkish, Swedish, Finnish, Danish, Norwegian, Greek

v1.3.315 03-20-26
Security Fix
This release addresses a security vulnerability. If you are running any earlier version of Greenshot 1.3, please update as soon as possible.

All technical details can be found in the security advisory. Less technical summary: when you double-click Greenshot’s tray icon, Greenshot opens the folder containing your most recent screenshot by starting Windows Explorer. In affected versions, this was done by launching "explorer.exe" without an absolute path.

On Windows, starting a program by name (instead of e.g. C:\Windows\explorer.exe) can cause Windows to search for that program in multiple locations. If an attacker is able to place a malicious explorer.exe in a location that Windows checks before the real Windows one, Greenshot could accidentally start the attacker’s program instead. That attacker-controlled program could then run code in your user context (and even start the real Explorer afterwards, so things still “look normal”).
Stability Improvements
Alongside the security fix, we have backported several bug fixes from the 1.4 development branch that address real-world issues reported by our users:
Clipboard crash fixed: Greenshot could previously crash when something unexpected was placed on the clipboard by another application. This no longer happens.
High CPU usage resolved: A bug in the background task scheduler was causing Greenshot to consume an excessive amount of CPU even when idle. This has been corrected.
Black areas in the editor gone: When working at 75% zoom in the editor, some users saw strange black rectangles appear in the canvas. These visual glitches are now fixed.
Correct Windows version reporting: Greenshot was incorrectly reporting Windows 11 as Windows 10 in the error reporting window. The version is now identified accurately.
Smoother line and arrow drawing: When drawing lines or arrows, the endpoint would briefly flash in the wrong position. The drawing tool now behaves as expected from the very first click.
Region capture crosshair fixed: The zoom helper and crosshair in region capture mode no longer flicker to the wrong starting position when you begin a selection.

Cleaner Installations
We have also improved the installer to prevent issues caused by leftover files from older versions of Greenshot. The installer now automatically removes outdated 1.2 and 1.3 plugin files before placing the new ones — so you get a clean, consistent installation every time. Only plugins originally provided by Greenshot are affected by this cleanup.
