Canceling Sending a Screenshot to the Server

AtTrack takes screenshots of the screen every 10 minutes. If there was something personal on the screen when the screenshot was taken, you can cancel sending it to the server. In this case, no one will see the screenshot, but 10 minutes will not be counted as a working time.

  1. When a new screenshot is takes, a window appears in the upper-right corner of the screen for 10 seconds. To cancel sending a screenshot, click the “Discard " button in this window.

If you don't click any of the two buttons for 10 seconds, the screenshot will be automatically sent to the server.
