I want to track down what might be keeping the SnagIt from working (namely what program, if any, is causing the conflict) but that is going to take some Sysinternals level digging.

I was wondering how many posts it takes to get off the "I'm new around here" status...  I know I can change it on my forum (I think I added something like "Spaz Ninja" for the 10,000 mark) but that's something that Ashraf will have to deal with if he wants.

Speaking of digging into the internals of all this, Ashraf, I still need to look into the whole Anvir, Process Explorer, Task Manager memory usage issue I mentioned to you a few weeks back.  I haven't forgot...I'm just way too busy.

The reason I like having a built-in editor and PDF conversion tool in SnagIt and Solid Capture, as opposed to just a scroll-down web page snapshot tool alone, is that I gather research info from such places as Googlebooks. I can them compile all those page captures into PDFs with a couple of clicks of the mouse. Frees up a lot of time and makes research that bit easier.

So Evan, if you are still out there, you might want to give this a try.

Ozzie said:Hmmm, just discovered that the window scrolling tool only work with IE (which I am not a fan of). And this looked so promising, too ...

Windows scrolling is a peciluar feature. So far the best screenshot tool I have used for capturing scrolling Windows is FastStone Capture; it does it better than even SnagIt. However FastStone Capture is also not perfect, sometimes messing up itself.

I think this might be what we are both looking for. If we have to give up on SnagIt for the time being, might as well go for something on par with it.

I hope this helps.

I had the same issue with Windows Vista 32-bit.  I never did figure out what the issue was though.  If you ever figure anything out I'd like to hear it.  I'll do the same if I find anything out.

Ozzie said:Hi Ashraf! Yep, am on W7 32-bit. I tried installing as administrator - by that you mean clicking on "run as administrator" thing, right? But no luck. All goes well until it says "2 seconds remaining" and then .... nothing. I just cannot seem to get it to install.

Sorry - I have no idea what is up =(.

@Steelers6 - Window 7 still has Snipping Tool and yes FastStone still works on Windows 7.

If so, you can get 50% off with your free key you got. I know it isn't free but maybe it will help.

I'm still learning snipping tool and afraid to upgrade to windows 7 just for these reasons. Have it here right on my desk.

You can still use fast Stone no? and sniiping tool is it not in windows 7? I'll keep my eyes out for you.

Vidimo Se!

Try installating as Administrator and see if that helps.
