Have something to say?
Suggestions
Hi! I’d like to leave a few suggestions for improvements here: Highlighter Vibrant / Bolder colors Exemplo: SleekShot’s yellow looks much lighter/fainter than the Windows default. Snap to straight line Exemplo: Holding Shift keeps the highlighter moving in a perfectly straight line along the mouse's direction. Shapes Shape connectors Exemplo: Ability to draw rectangles and use lines (solid or dashed) to snap and connect one rectangle to another (or any other shape). Multi-point / Elbow lines and arrows (Waypoints) Exemplo: Drag an arrow or line to a point, press a key (like Shift) to turn/angle it, press again to branch in another direction, and keep drawing or adding inflection points to create a custom path.
Allow "Silent Quick Save" on Ctrl+S & Fix Ctrl+Shift+S (Save History shortcut is broken)
Currently, the saving workflow in Sleekshot has some friction, and a shortcut is broken in the latest Microsoft Store version (v0.0.56.0). 1. The Broken Shortcut (Ctrl+Shift+S) In v0.0.56.0, there is a new feature: "Save history". Right-clicking the floppy disk icon allows selecting a recent folder to save instantly without the Windows Explorer popup. However, pressing Ctrl+Shift+S does absolutely nothing. The shortcut is currently broken and does not trigger this action. 2. The "Auto-save" Behavior Enabling "Auto-save" saves the image automatically when copying (Ctrl+C). This forces an automatic save even when a user only wants to copy-paste an image to the clipboard. The Suggestion: Fix the Ctrl+Shift+S shortcut so the recent locations feature actually works via keyboard. Add a True "Silent Quick Save" on Ctrl+S: If a default save folder is configured, pressing Ctrl+S (or left-clicking the save icon) should instantly save the image to that folder using an automatic timestamp name (e.g., Print_20260713_1715.png), completely bypassing the Windows Explorer "Save As" popup. This would separate the actions cleanly: Ctrl+C: Copies to clipboard only. Ctrl+S: Instantly saves to the default folder in the background with zero popups.

Please help me with this
whenever I’m taking a screenshot, its saving 2 same screenshots. what should i do😭
dont work
English Version (Full & Precise) Subject: Bug Report: Privilege-related crashes and capture failures for System Windows (Task Manager, etc.) Description: I have identified a consistent bug in Sleekshot on Windows 11 related to privilege levels and system applications: Crash when Running as Admin: When Sleekshot is launched with Administrator privileges, it silently crashes (terminates immediately) the moment I try to save a screenshot to a file. Capture Failure for System Windows (Standard Mode): When Sleekshot is launched without Admin privileges, it fails to trigger via hotkeys if any of the following apps are in focus: Task Manager, Device Manager, Control Panel, PowerShell, or Total Commander. The capture UI only appears if I first click on the Windows Taskbar to shift focus away from these windows. The Conflict: The app seems unable to correctly interact with high-integrity system processes. It either lacks the permission to "see" them (in standard mode) or crashes when it has the permissions but tries to execute a save command (in admin mode). Вариант на русском (полный и точный) Тема: Баг-репорт: Вылеты и проблемы с захватом системных окон (Диспетчер задач, Панель управления и др.) Описание: Я выявил серьезную проблему в работе Sleekshot на Windows 11, связанную с взаимодействием с системными процессами: Вылет при работе от администратора: Если Sleekshot запущен от имени администратора, программа мгновенно закрывается («тихий вылет») при попытке сохранить скриншот в файл. Отказ захвата системных окон (обычный режим): Если Sleekshot запущен без прав администратора, он полностью игнорирует горячие клавиши, если активны следующие окна: Диспетчер задач, Диспетчер устройств, Панель управления, PowerShell или Total Commander. Интерфейс скриншота срабатывает только после клика по панели задач Windows (снятия фокуса с окна). Суть проблемы: Программа некорректно работает с окнами высокого приоритета (High Integrity). В обычном режиме она их «не замечает», а в режиме администратора — падает при попытке записи файла.
previous screenshot region
I’d like to have another keyboard shortcut, for example CTRL-PrtSc or SHIFT-PrtSc to capture the same region that was last captured.
Incrementing Step Suggestion
Hi, I’m coming from Greenshot and FlameShot. Can you add a incrementing Step option? Creates a filled circle with an incrementing number. First circle is 1, second is 2 etc. I use this alot for creating Steps in screenshots. “Click this first then this” Thanks!
Editing drawn elements
It would also be very useful to have the ability to move and resize drawn elements in the Sleekshot editor, such as arrows, rectangles, and other shapes. Sometimes it’s necessary to adjust the position or size of an annotation after placing it, and this flexibility would make the editing process much smoother. I also want to say thank you for creating Sleekshot. I’ve been looking for a Windows alternative to Shottr on macOS for a long time, and Sleekshot is by far the best option I’ve found. It’s lightweight, fast, not overloaded with unnecessary features, and the controls feel very natural and well-designed. I really appreciate the clean and focused approach — it’s exactly the kind of tool I was searching for.
Screenshot size with display scaling
The issue: I’m using a 4K monitor with 150% scaling in Windows. Because of this, the system renders everything as if the screen were essentially 2K. When I take a screenshot, I would like the final image size to match this logical resolution (2K in my case), instead of the full physical 4K resolution. My use case: I work in web development and design, and I often need to capture a specific area to paste into Figma or another editor, where the size should match 1:1 with what I see on screen. Currently, due to scaling, the captured image ends up larger than expected. Feature request: It would be great to have an option to capture screenshots in logical pixels, ignoring DPI scaling, so the final image size matches what is visually rendered on the screen. Thank you! I really enjoy using Sleekshot, and this feature would make it even more useful for developers and designers.
Autorun
Remove the notification that the application is already running. The problem is that if multiple users are working on the same computer, the program starts again when they log in to another user. This causes a message box to appear when the user logs in.
Higher Definition image screen shot option
I WANT IT Thank you :D P.S. and seems like auto save is not working..
Copy file's path doesnt work no more

New feature request
If it were possible, along with the copy/save/send buttons, there could be a button where you clicked and the screenshot would be in a separate window, without copying or saving, just to have a window visible for some consultation or comparison.
Copy paste to WhatsApp not working
Make screenshot, click button copy, open WhatsApp and paste → not working. Make screenshot, click button copy, open Paint app, paste, copy again, open WhatsApp and paste → working.
Option to draw dashed lines
Sleekshot is a very handy tool! Thanks for developing it! Would be nice to have an option to automatically draw dashed lines with the Pen and Line tool. Here is an example from PureRef:
Highligther fades out text
The highligther is great adition to the app, thanks for that! Maybe it could be improved, now it fades a bit the readability of the original text. It would be better if it could multiply color (insted of beeing just an overlay), so the dark colors keep consistent like a real marker does.
2 Suggestion
I recently came across your Reddit post while looking for an alternative to Lightshot. I tried your app, and I have to say—it’s already amazing. Thank you for developing it! However, there's one drawback that's holding me back from fully switching: the lack of an option to upload screenshots to third-party storage services like Imgur, Dropbox, Box, OneDrive, etc. Feature Suggestions: Third-Party Upload Integration Please consider adding the ability to upload directly to third-party storage platforms. In the settings, users could connect their accounts and choose a default upload method. With this, screenshots could be uploaded in a single click. This feature would set your app apart from Lightshot and make it a must-use for me. Window Detection / Smart Snapping A feature like Snagit/Greenshot window detection would be a huge usability boost—where the app automatically detects and highlights UI windows for precise capturing. I can’t speak for every user, but I’ve researched and tested many similar tools. None of them quite hit the mark until now. Your app comes very close to being the ideal solution. If users could control where and how screenshots are uploaded, this would truly be a game changer. Keep up the great work.
