Windows FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions for Windows Users
Details on Windows compatibility, capture exclusion, and installation.
Which versions of Windows are supported by ClawPad?
ClawPad supports Windows 10 (build 2004 and newer) and Windows 11 on 64-bit (x64) machines, which is where the capture-exclusion flag it relies on is available.
How does screen capture exclusion work on Windows?
ClawPad sets the window display affinity flag WDA_EXCLUDEFROMCAPTURE, which asks the Windows Desktop Window Manager to leave the overlay out of capture. Sharing tools that honor the flag omit the overlay from a consent-based practice share.
Is the Windows installer signed?
Not yet. The early-access Windows NSIS installer is unsigned, so SmartScreen may warn on first launch. Windows code signing is a planned part of the signed stable channel.
