(If it doesn't work for you immediately after installation, reboot and try again.) It works just as well when run as a standard user, recording both 32 and 64-bit applications. Launch the program and you can start or stop keylogging with a click there's a Settings option to start logging automatically when Windows starts, and everything typed is saved to a text file (C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Temp by default, though this can be whatever you like).Īnother technical plus is the program doesn't have to be run as an administrator. Open the text file, read the password, use that to unzip the archive, and you get another executable, which then downloads the actual program and installs it for you (phew).įortunately, everything else is very straightforward. Unzipping that produces a password-protected archive and a password.txt file. Installation is more complicated than we expected. Windows Spy Keylogger is a simple free tool for recording everything typed on a PC.
