Today, we’re going to learn how to screen record on your laptop. It turns out it’s really easy and you probably already have this app installed. Let’s dive in. To screen record your laptop, press the Windows key together with Shift and R and this opens up the Snipping tool. You can now highlight the area of the screen that you would like to record. Or alternatively, you can also select the entire screen. Here, I’ll record my entire screen. Right up on top, you have a few different options. Here, you can turn your microphone on or off and you can also select the mic that you would like to record with. Over here, you can also decide whether you want to record the system sound. So, think of that as audio or sounds playing on your computer. Right over here, to kick off your recording, click on the Start button and down below, you’ll see a countdown timer and right now, it’s recording. If you’d like to pause your recording, right up here, you can click on the pause icon and to resume your recording, simply click on Play again. And here, you can see how much time has elapsed since you kicked off your recording. Once you’re all done, click on the Stop button. This opens up the screen recording and down at the bottom, I can play it back and there you see my mouse moving around. If you’d like to make edits to your screen recording, maybe you’d like to only keep a portion of it, in the top right-hand corner, you can edit in an app called Clipchamp. This is a free video editing app provided by Microsoft and it’s actually really decent and you can make some really good edits with it. Up here, you can also save a copy of your screen recording and when you click on this, you can save it as an MP4 file. I’ll cancel this. Right up on top, you can also copy your screen recording and then you can paste it into other applications. And, all the way on the right, we have the three dots and when I click on this, we also have some settings. Let’s take a quick look. There are two different settings related to screen recording. Right here, you can define whether your microphone should be turned on by default and you can also decide whether your system audio is set to record by default. You can toggle these on or off. All right, there you go. That was easy. Did you know that you already had that app installed? Let me know in the comments. I’ll see you next time.
