Clipchamp is a web-based video recording software from Microsoft that comes pre-installed on every setup of Windows 11. The idea of the app is to provide an easy-to-use solution for creating professional videos that content creators can then share on different platforms, such as YouTube, Instagram, and many other social networks.
Of course, you can find many other solutions to do the job better, but Clipchamp can help anyone without technical skills record videos. Using this application, you can screen record the entire desktop or a specific window. You can also include the camera to record both the desktop and yourself. Or you can use the app to simply record the screen.
The app requires a Microsoft 365 subscription to unlock every feature. However, you can also use it without a subscription with some limitations, including 720p max resolution for exports, premium audio and images, premium filters and effects, content backup, and more. In addition to Clipchamp, Windows 11 also offer screen recording capabilities with the Snipping Tool. You can use these instructions to get started.
This guide will teach you the steps to get started recording the screen on your Windows 11 computer.
