Captura – free and open source screen video recording for Windows without ads or limited recording time

Captura

Yes, a real pity it is no longer supported by its creator due to another person his open source code (MIT license) and uploading it to the Microsoft Store as his own creation…

I had to urgently find a SIMPLE screen recorder in a hurry as my meeting had started online, and I had to use Windows OS (some issue with Skype for Business not starting on Linux). So gone were my normal Linux simple recorders. Everything I found on a search for Windows limited to 10 mins recording, or had watermarks, or no computer output sound source, etc.

But wow Captura ticked all the boxes with full screen or region of screen, choice of one or more audio recordings, FPS rate, mouse clicks, key strokes, portable build, etc in a simple interface. All I did have to do was download FFMPEG, and point Captura it to the binary file.
