Love to play with Windows 11 and 10. Suggestion - Going for Registry change or system files edit then remember to take a backup or create a restore point before Starting.

  1. When using psr on Windows 10, it seems to only work intermittently.
    I open the app as instructed and record my process. Once this is done, I stop the recording and save as instructed in this article.
    BUT if I want to do another recording I cannot just click on the “New Recording” button and continue as this does not record anything – it gives a blank doc when stopping the recording. I have to close the app completely and then re-open it again and then I can record.
    Is this caused by an incorrect setting or what? Please help as this is highly frustrating!

  2. U must set an output .zip first… settings is under the arrow by ?

  3. Hi, my step recorder isn’t showing my recordings after, I click stop record and nothing happens to save it, any suggestions? I’m on windows 10.
