Ashampoo's Snap may be the only video capture app that lets you select the installed codec to be used for capture, which is a big deal. A codec is the video COmpressor / DECompressor that takes the raw data, puts it in the format to be saved in a file, and applies video compression, shrinking the video stream to something that can be written to disk in real time. Some codecs are simply better for capture than others -- the usual ffmpeg isn't one of them.

That isn't to say Ashampoo Snap doesn't have its negatives. *To me*, Ashampoo tries so hard to make the GUI easy that it winds up being confusing -- I find it harder than it should be to find the setting I'm after. For simple snapshots, rather than video capture, I normally use something else, e.g., the snapshot tool built into Opera & Edge, or Windows tools -- they're faster easier, and don't require opening another app.

Set up, download and activation all straightforward but the program refuses to open. When I use the Ashampoo Troubleshooter I am informed that it is an Incompatible Program. I am running Windows 10 and Microsoft Edge with Windows defender. Any ideas?
