Windows 10 Will Have Screen Recording Tool
Mark Wilson writes: Windows 10 has not even been released yet, but that's a perfect reason to start unearthing a few secrets. Over the coming weeks and months there will undoubtedly be an endless stream of tips, tricks, and tweaks to try out, but how's this for starters? Windows 10 has a secret screen recording tool that can be used to capture on-screen activity as a video file. Taking a static screenshot is very simple. You can either hit the Print Screen key, use the Snipping Tool, or turn to one of the countless screen capture tools out there — many of which are free. When it comes to capturing video, however, it's something of a different story. Before you splash out on a dedicated tool such as Camtasia, you might want to try out Windows 10's hidden tool. It's designed for gamers really, but anyone can use it. The Game bar is a toolbar which Microsoft meant for gamers to use to capture screenshots of their high scores, as well as video footage of their gaming skills. Despite the name, it is not limited to use within games
Yeah who wants to bet this can be activated remotely.... Win10 looks like a real joy.. Mandated Updates No MediaCenter Now this Screen Recording Tool . The Exploits are going to be really interesting I canceled my free Update 2 weeks ago.. not doing it sorry...

Who the hell cares about your "leet gaming skills" or your stupid video game high scores? The amount of crap Millennials post about irrelevant bullshit that no one cares about is amazing. And now here's a tool that's designed to cater to that "everyone is a special snowflake" crowd of losers.
Whatever. Screen recording has been possible with office tools for ages (you know, software designed to let adults get real work done) so I guess the only thing that's special is that they're now catering to that Millennial crowd of "I'm so special" idiots.
