freeshooter-1.exe contains virus per Defender. In addition, in 2.0.7 main window disappears for screenshot, does not do so in 2.1. Had copy of 2.0.7 to go back to. Previous version are excellent, have used for years.
v2.1

Can't access the website at all. Getting HTTP 500 error. Tried a few different browsers as well. Anyone having the same issue?

From website:
To activate portable mode, create freeshooter.ini in application folder, or move it from %APPDATA%\Henry++\Free Shooter.
v2.0.7

Nice to have an actively developed screenshot tool that doesn't rely on dotNET libraries.
v2.0.1
On Windows 11 2024, version 2.1 and above: FreeShooter windows does not disapear for screen shot. Just me? 2.07 works fine.
v2.2
