Screen Recorder Runs on a USB Flash Disk?

Some users asked us, is that possible to license SCREEN2SWF on flash disk? The reason they need install a screen recorder on a flash disk is, when they use public computer, they may need to record something they need.

The answer is no, unfortunately, for SCREEN2SWF. Because there will be license problem to do this, and there will be ‘can not run’ problem too when install it on a removable drive. But, there is a way to do it!

As you know, SCREEN2EXE is totally free software and we allow you use it for any purpose and install on any numbers of computers/devices. And it works well on a USB flash disk. So, it is possible to install a SCREEN2EXE on flash drive and share project file with SCREEN2SWF on a registered computer. Let me show you how to do it.

First, install SCREEN2EXE to a local folder. Then, copy the following files and folder on flash drive (you need to create a folder manually). Now you have a portable screen recorder that supports ‘plug and record’ on any computer.

After that you can uninstall the local SCREEN2EXE copy.

Next, you can connect flash disk to any computer, run SCREEN2EXE manually to record… But, remember to save the result to a project file (*.svp) instead of exe. And, please ignore the email dialog in first running; don’t leave your personal information on other computers.

Final step, when you come back to your computer where SCREEN2SWF is installed and registered. You open the project file to get everything you recorded. You can continue editing it and exporting it to any format you need. Easy, isn’t it?

    Why not an Scn2EXE/SWF User Forum be created for sharing ideas/tips/ideas among users of scn2swf? Such a kind of great sofware should already have one!

    This is wonderful. I need to record something off the screen, but the computer I can access to do not have IE7+ … This save my life :)
