  • I have the online version, and whenever I record something the sound comes from my computer and not my headphones. Does anyone know what the problem is? And how do I update the online version anyway?

    • Hi! Do you mean that you cannot record sound from microphone but only the computer system sound? If so, could you plz drop down "Audio input" menu and check whether "Microphone" or "Both system sound and microphone" is selected. BTW, which version of screen recorder are you using now? You can drop down "Help" menu and select "About" to view the version of this program. If you still fails to record what you want, you can send email to our support email: support@apowersoft.com, we will help you ASAP.

  • I can't get this to work in fullscreen mode for games. I am trying to record Witcher III in fullscreen mode, but it just shows a black screen. The sound works just fine, but it's a solid black screen.

    • There are two ways for you to upload your video to YouTube. Way one: Go to youtube.com and log in. Click the "Upload" button on the top right of the page and wait the page to load. Then hit "Select files to upload", choose your video to upload when Windows explorer opens. Click "OK", then there you go. Click "Publish" when the uploading finishes. Way two: Use Apowersoft Screen Recorder Pro. After recording your gaming video with this recorder, just choose it on the recording list and click "Upload" > "Upload to YouTube". You need to fill in your YouTube account if this is the first time you use this function. Once you've logged in, you can upload videos to YouTube directly. Easy and Efficient!

  • That's all nice and dandy, and it is a very practical tool to be free, but I find no way to record fullscreen AND webcam at the same time, only a region and my webcam. Is there a way I have missed? It is much more personal to my viewers if they can see my face and the game at the same time, but I'd like to have the game full screen so I can see what I'm doing too.

    • It's true that this screen recorder works fine for recording screen and web camera at the same time, however in this case you can not record the full screen, but with your face at the corner of the screen.

    • When you install Apowersoft Recorder, the system sound works fine at the beginning. But after lapse of some time, the system sound does not work. Just uninstall the Apowersoft and the system sound will work again. It is a problem with this software. I have also experienced this problem and solved it by uninstalling the Apowersoft application.
