Part 1: Start Any Keylogger

How AnyKeylogger works?
Any Keylogger operates in hidden mode and does not appear on the computer system while being monitored. It is invisible in Add/Remove program list, Software installation files, Startup menu, and even from the Desktop icon. That’s to say, users being monitored won’t be aware of being monitored when Any Keylogger runs in the background. If you switch on the monitoring status, Any Keylogger will monitor computers even though you close it or hide it in the background, the only way you can stop it is to switch off the button of status in the main interface.

Activate and Run Any Keylogger
After you install Any Keylogger, the main interface will immediately pop up. If the main window doesn’t appear, you can press the hotkey of “Ctrl+Shift+Alt+A” to activate it, in the main window, you should firstly switch on the button of status.

View Logs
Click the “View Log” button in the main interface, then the log window appears. In this window, you can choose any user’s computer and every item to view the logs, here, Any Keylogger also offers you the function of exporting logs.

Close Program
You should know that the program is still operating in the background if you just click “X” of the main window. Please switch off the button of “Status”, and then Any Keylogger will really stop monitoring computers.

Screenshots
In “Screenshots”, you can set different aspects of screenshots.
Firstly, you can set the capture interval to ensure the program will capture the computer screen as you need.

Secondly, set the capture scale and capture quality so that you can get the proper screenshots. Here, you can also set the interval of idle time so the program won’t capture the screen when the computer is idle for a certain time, while this program will begin to capture the screen on every “Enter” key if you check this box.

What’s more, create the function of Smart Sense Capture to set certain words, then the program will capture the screen when these words appear.
