Is it possible to program an application that won't show up on a print screen?


If the Print Scrn button is pushed and then you open paint and Ctrl V your image in there is there a way to make it so your program isn't there or maybe is substituted with a black box or something.

I don't have a lot of windows programming experience, and this is just more of a curiosity to me than something I actually plan on implementing. All feedback is appreciated.


Solution

  • you can't disable the Print Scrn from your winform application because it is a OS feature. even if it was possible someone could be smart enough to use a digital camera....

    have also a look at the below:
