Screen Capture tools
I have tried cam studio but I'm unable to use the video generated by it. I can't copy or view the file except through the cam studio itself.

FastStone Capture 5.3 (last freeware version)
Note: Use either of the last 2 (free) links on bottom of page
It captures rectangular/active screen or area, freehand area and also captures a scrolling screen, I have used it many times - an good example would be to capture a lengthy tutorial to use offline. A great find by Barman58

Do you have full Admin rights to the files?
Follow this tutorial and see if that helps;
Context Menu - Take Ownership - Vista Forums
This works on Win 7 as well!
Also try this:

Both of these additions are worth having and are constantly useful.
Camtasia records using a specific codec (Techsmith camcorder codec) and is not directley compatible with WMP but will work fine with VLC (Or WMP with the klite codec pack). So even if the file appears to be an .avi file it still may not play.
When using the camtasia recorder you can select the video codec under tools > options > inputs > video settings and select the codec required from the list.
yeah, I'm the only admin of this machine.
I download the camtasia and this is the result TechSmith | Screencast.com, online video sharing, Google Transliterate urdu with Audio commentary with audio commentary. And this one http://www.screencast.com/t/PqjamhrW without the audio commentary.
I have Camstudio up and running and it doesn't need any extra codecs installed for it to work with all my video players. Indeed IMHO adding 3rd party codecs often puts a spanner in the works especially codec packs. Often you get a codec in a pack that is a different version to what you already have installed thereby causing a conflict. I use video files in a multitude of formats from four different camcorders and I have never needed to install extra codecs.
yousaf, I note that you are the only admin on your PC but have you carried out my suggestion in post #6?
Your two attachments work fine, how did you get them uploaded if you haven't access to the files?
I overlooked those. Though I'm going to do it now. These videos were produced by camtasia. Somebody recommended snagit and I went a step further. Downloaded camtasia, and it really working. Cam studio's files are unaccessible except by itself.
I have explained how I can't find the file in this video. I tried both methods but can't find the files.
