Screen recorder to GIF

Looking for a screen recorder to GIF that is fast and practical? Fenêtre Capture Tool is designed for quick captures that communicate clearly. A GIF made from screen recording is perfect when you want something lightweight that plays instantly in chat, tickets, or documentation.

  2. Step 2

    Choose how to record your screen

    On the home screen, choose how you want to capture your screen. For GIFs, a smaller region usually works best because the file stays lighter and the action stays focused.

    You can capture a region, an active screen, or go fullscreen, depending on what you need to show.

    Set the screen recorder output to GIF

    Before you start recording, set the output to GIF in the output options. This tells the Fenêtre Capture Tool to create a GIF from your screen recording instead of a video file.

    If you later decide you need audio, change the output back to video, since GIF has no sound.

    Record your screen to a GIF

    Click record and capture the action you want to show. For the best result, keep the recording short and focused.

    A good rule of thumb is to record a single flow or moment. For example, record the exact click path that triggers a bug, then stop as soon as the issue appears. That gives you a clean, shareable screen recording GIF that explains the problem without extra context.

    Save and share your GIF

    After recording, save the GIF in a folder of your choice. If you share screen recording GIFs often with colleagues, a consistent folder structure helps you reuse clips in documentation and support tickets.

    You can also share captures via your existing workflow. If you use Teams or Outlook integrations in the Fenêtre Capture Tool, this can reduce context switching when you need to send a capture quickly.
