ClickLight for Windows

Highlight your mouse clicks on screen during live demos, screen sharing, and UX
reviews. ClickLight sits quietly in the system tray and draws a fading pulse
wherever you click, so your audience can follow along.

Download

Pick one of the assets below:

  • ClickLight-…-Setup.exe (installer, recommended) — installs the app with
    Start-menu and desktop shortcuts, and installs the .NET 10 Desktop Runtime for
    you if it's missing
    .
  • ClickLight-…-win-x64.exe (standalone app, ~250 KB) — for machines that
    already have the .NET 10 Desktop Runtime. Just download and run.

First run

If Windows SmartScreen shows "Windows protected your PC" on first launch, choose
More info → Run anyway.

What it does

  • Fading pulse on click, a contracting ring on hold-and-release, and a drag trail
  • Laser-pointer mode: a glowing cursor that trails the pointer, plus a fading
    freehand stroke while you drag
  • Annotations: hold Ctrl+Shift and drag — left-drag draws an arrow,
    right-drag a box; they persist until Ctrl+Shift+C clears them
  • Live shortcut display: shows keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+C, Alt+Tab, …) as
    key-cap pills for screencasts — modifier combos only, off by default
  • Per-button and annotation colors, Size/Duration presets
  • A settings window and a dark tray menu with quick toggles
  • Global toggle hotkey Ctrl+Shift+L, launch-at-login, single-instance guard

Requirements

Windows 10 21H2+ or Windows 11.

A Windows reimplementation of the macOS app
ClickLight.


What's Changed

  • 1.6.0: tri-state toggle, mode badge, shortcut-display hotkey, and screen zoom by @dvdstelt in #7
