Hello,
I need a script that takes a screenshot.
I want to have two adjustable properties when taking screenshots.
For example, let him work for an hour and take screenshots every five minutes.
Another example, let it run for five hours, take a screenshot every ten minutes.
And save them in a folder. Let the name of the folder be the date of that day.
Would you help me with this topic.
I wish you good work

Hi @hguler07,
What error you are getting while downloading the file. Can you please share the screenshot.
Kind Regards,
PremJK
Hello,
I encountered this error when I tried to download the code you shared, but. my persistent clicks finally managed to download
I ran the code. The code says it was successful.
However, I cannot find the folder he created and the screenshots he took.
C: \ ProgramData
C: \ Users \ XXX \ AppData \ Local \ Temp
C: \ WINDOWS
C: \ WINDOWS \ TEMP
No matter where I look, there are no screenshots he says he took. Either there is a minor error in the code or I’m doing something wrong.
But I directly imported the json code you provided, I didn’t make any changes.
I’m adding screenshots
Hi @hguler07,
Thanks for your response. Will share your issue with our script developers to check.
Kind Regards,
PremJk
Hi @hguler07,
Our script developers like to have a remote session to investigate the issue. Can you please provide remote session.
If yes, we would create a support ticket to reach you for arranging remote.
Kind Regards,
PremJK
Hello,
Thank you. I created a support ticket. It was the first time I did this though, the screen felt a bit professional. I have filled in the relevant places, I am waiting. I definitely keep you informed of the developments.
Hello @hguler07
We have created a support ticket in regards to your report and will reach you via your forum registered email for further correspondence.
Hello
It has been a while since I created a support ticket, but I haven’t received a feedback yet.
A few emails were sent to the support ticket, but I did not understand what to do. I don’t know if it is coming automatically or sending someone. That screen met a little bit against my eyes.
Actually a script on your website is taking a screenshot. But the purpose of this script is about taking pictures and sending mail.
Since I do not make smtp settings, it does not send mail, but it takes a screenshot. The screenshot capture code in this code. Do you have any chance to change it as I want.
If you want to run and view the code on our computer, I can provide you with remote connection. Like TW or Anydesk.
I wish you good work.

Hi hguler07,
It has been a while since I created a support ticket, but I haven’t received a feedback yet.
Our support team have created support ticket to reach you with your registered forum email id. Can you please check that and provide requested details to arrange remote session.
Sorry, the ticket you have created is internal one. Please reply to the ticket which we have created.
Kind Regards,

Hello ,
Since I used this ticket system for the first time, I thought they would communicate through the forum. Or because they send a message to the company e-mail address where I created the Ticket. They sent it to my forum mail address. They asked for a contact number for the remote connection. They can connect directly to my computer, as I will have difficulty speaking English. Did I pass an Anydesk id. I have stated that I am available for connection for 17:11: 2020 and I have communicated the hours. In fact, they can now connect. Our shift ends at 18:00. Thank you for the information. I will definitely inform you of the results.
Hi @hguler07,
Thank you so much for your prompt reply. Our Support team will reach you through provided details.
Kind Regards,
PremJK
Hello,
An official from the support department remotely connected to my computer and solved my problem. Forgive me if I’m writing wrong, her name is Om prakash. Although there was a problem with the keyboard control, he corrected about two clock codes by making changes to the code with the on-screen keyboard. He ended his connection after making sure that the code was completely working properly. Thank you once again.
I wish you good work.
Best regards
Hi @hguler07,
Happy to know that issue is solved. Thanks for taking time to provide feedback.
Kind Regards,
