Saving Screen shots using Faststone Capture

Topic

New Reply

Until recently when I used Faststone Capture to copy a section of whatever is on screen, it was saved with the Faststone app. but since I downloaded Photo Suite 2, it by default saves the item now. Short of uninstalling the latter, is it possible to change some setting / s so it leaves the saving to Faststone as the image when saved by Photo Suite 2 shows a + when the cursor is hovered over it which – in turn – disfigures the image if moved. (see attachment.) If I reopen the captured image using IE, Nero Photo Snap Viewer or Irfanview, the image is not disfigured if I move the cursor over it. Regards Dave D

I’m really not understanding the problem. How can FastStone Capture save as Photosuite 2? What do you mean?

Are you saying that when you try to take a screenshot, that Photosuite 2 starts and not FastStone Capture?

Are you saying that when you try to open a file that was captured and saved by FastStone Capture that Photsuite2 is the program that opens the file? If this is the case, then you just need to re-associate a file type (say, .bmp) with FastStone Capture.

Althouth I am not clear on the problem, perhaps re-installing FastStone Capture may restore the previous situation. Or there may be file association options in FS Capture that will do the same thing without a re-install.

Maybe this helps. …J. Till

Please forget my request for assistance on this point as I have simply uninstalled Photo Suite 2 and the problem is history…Sorry for the confusion….Regards Dave.
