Discarding or Restarting a Recording

Gareth Casey Updated by Gareth Casey

Restarting a Recording

A recording sesson can quickly be restarted with the exact same settings. This is useful if you have made a mistake and want to start over.

Clicking the button on the Recorder Control Bar or pressing Ctrl + F10 will immediately pause the recording session and prompt you to either start a new recording session by clicking Restart recording or resume the current recording session by clicking Resume.

If you click Restart recording, the current session will be deleted and the 3,2,1 countdown for a new recording session will begin immediately. The same settings, including the screen / region / window that is being recorded, will be used again.

When making a fullscreen recording, the Recorder Control Bar will start off minimized to the taskbar. Click on the FlashBack icon on the taskbar to make the Recorder Control Bar bar appear on the left side of the screen. Then click the button.

Cancelling a Recording

Recording sessions can be ended without saving. The recording will be immediately discarded so cannot be recovered afterwards.

Clicking the button on the Recorder Control Bar or pressing Ctrl + F9 will immediately pause the recording session and prompt you to either discard it by clicking Cancel recording or resume the recording session by clicking Resume.

If you click Cancel recording, the recording will be deleted and you will returned to the Recorder Window.

When making a fullscreen recording, the Recorder Control Bar will start off minimized to the taskbar. Click on the Flashback Express icon on the taskbar to make the Recorder Control Bar appear on the left side of the screen. Then click the button.
