Recording your screen could be useful in many situations. For example, you may need to record a short video from a game or create a video tutorial. This way or another, such feature could become very useful and effective no matter what you do. And today, we're going to explore the best ways of doing that. Let's get it started. We'll begin with the official utility by Microsoft – Xbox Game Bar. Some builds of Windows 11 come with this app pre-installed. But even if your Windows lacks it, you can always install Game Bar from Microsoft Store. Go to the Start menu. Open Microsoft Store. Sign in to Microsoft Store. Type Xbox Game Bar in the search field. Press Enter. In the window that opens, click Get. Now, Xbox Game Bar needs to be configured. Look on the Start menu, jump to Settings, open the Gaming tab and find Captures. Choose where to save your records. Also, you can change your record settings. To be more exact, set maximum recording lengths. Decide if you want sound recorded along with the video. Set video frame rate. Choose video quality. And decide if you want to see the mouse cursor in your video record. After that, start a game or another app. You want to record. Launch Game Bar by pressing the key shortcut Win plus G. Finally, look up to find this Capture button and click on it to start recording. On the left, the panel will appear with such options. Take a screenshot. Record last 30 seconds. Start recording.

However, it is restricted to being able to record only one running app at a time, and that's why I can't put it on top of my personal rating. Meanwhile, there are numerous tools out there to let you make screen recordings in various versions of Windows. Naturally, we will never have time and resources sufficient to describe every app that can do it, so we'll cover the best tools available. Let's start with FreeCam, which is a free utility. It's easy to use but very effective. Visit the official website, give your email, click here to download, and then run the installer. When the installation is over, start FreeCam. When the program window opens, click New Recording. After that, change the screen capture area and switch it to Fullscreen by clicking on this option. Also, you can select a specific application for recording or a specific area on your screen and click on the record button. After that, you will see a countdown three seconds before FreeCam starts the recording. To stop recording, press the Escape key. After that, the preview screen for the recorded video opens and you can edit the video if necessary. If you don't need to, you can upload the video to YouTube immediately or just save it somewhere on your computer. With the integrated editor, you can remove noise, adjust the volume, trim the video, and add some fade-in and fade-out elements. To remove sound or some frames, select a part of the video to edit. Right-click and choose Silence Selection or Delete from the menu. After that, click Save and Close to go back to the previous window. When you're finished with editing, click Save as a video. Now you can upload it to YouTube as well. FreeCam is pretty easy to use and it offers a great range of functions for an ordinary user. However, there are also more complicated tools over there, such as OBS, which stands for Open Broadcaster Software. It's a popular application used by thousands of streamers on various platforms. In addition to streams and broadcasts, it can also record videos of what's happening on your computer. OBS is a very good choice. With all of its functionality, it's absolutely free to use. To download OBS, follow the link in the description. Select the platform where to install the app. In my case, it is Windows. Run the installer. When the installation is over, start the app. After that, the Auto Configuration Wizard opens. Click on the tab Optimize just for recording. Click Next. Select Resolution and Framerate. Next. Apply Settings. Then jump to the tab Services. And add your display Capture. Click OK when necessary. Also, you can add new sources, for example, some text, for a logo. For the Game Capture feature, various settings are available. Go to the Controls tab. Click on Start Recording. To stop or pause the recording, go back to the OBS window and click on the Stop Recording button or the Pause button. In the lower left corner of the app window, you will see the path to the new record you have just made. In my opinion, this is the best tool to choose if you are looking for a free tool to record your screen, with good functionality, high performance, and ease of use, even for beginners.
