    Alternative software for Steps Recorder in Window 11


    I am trying to track user's behavior, including screen recording, click and drag tracking, and keyboard input tracking. I found that "Steps Recorder" software is quite useful and be able to fulfil my purposes to some extent.As informed on the Steps Recorder software that it is being phased out, MS suggests several alternatives, including Snipping Tool, Xbox Game Bar, and ClipChamp. Although these tools are capable of recording screen and audio, they do not have a feature to collect other data, including click, drag, and keyboard input like Steps Recorder does.My question is, are there any ot

    Steps Recorder there... but not there

    I seemed to have been saved by a link to this fix:
    Please use regedit to rename hklm\software\policies\microsoft\windows\AppCompat - changeAppCompat to AppCompat_HOLD . Then try launching PSR again.
    Tried it and now Steps Recorder seems to be working as it should.
    But to follow up on your suggestion, I'm going to try to find and repair the corrupt files that my sfc scan found... after setting a restore point!
    Thanks for your help.

    Are you trying to use this? - C:\Windows\System32\psr.exe
    [Start menu, Windows accessories, Steps recorder - but often referred to as the Problem steps recorder]

    It is supposed to launch a small UI dialog and it should also be shown on the Taskbar but, from your description, this does not happen. Does anything happen at all?

    I really don't know what to suggest to you.

    Even though you can not see it on screen, does it show in task manager ? I wonder if it might be worth you running a system file check using :

    sfc/ SCANNOW from an elevated command prompt.
