    Can't take screenshots of Task Manager


    Neither PrintScreen nor any assigned hotkeys for ShareX work when a Task Manager window is active. I'm on the November 2019 update (18362.10024) and I'm pretty sure I've been able to take screenshots of task manager in the past.

    I cant make a screenshot of task manager

    Hi, ShareX is a little harder to use, but here you can see the window is listed:

    and I have set it to prompt me as to where to save the screenshot- example:

    What do you see happen? Screenshot would help.

    Note: if stuck or want to capture a dropdown, say, that otherwise disappears, use PrtSc or equivalent, then paste into, say, Paint, to select what you want, as I did with the first one.

    A difficulty with task manager is that it is set to be 'on top' - so for example, if I try to capture it with a rectangle, that rectangle using Duckcapture, the rectangle seems to be drawn UNDER the window, but does work.

    Snip & Sketch works ok for me. and the rectangle selection is drawn on top of the window:

    Windows 10 - cannot add exec to Startup in Task Manager

    I purchased a new computer with Windows 10 already installed. I am trying to add an exec to the startup list but Win10 will not accept it. The exec runs successfully on my Windows 10 machine if I start it manually.

    Steps I've taken: Task Manager, Startup Tab, File>Run New Task. (browse to location, select.) It will start immediately, but does not show up on the list to autostart, nor does it start on reboot.

    Any suggestions?
