GetWindowText is a program for reading text from different controls in program windows. Reading is initiated by dragging the pointer from the program window to the elements from which you want to get the text. The program reads text from lists, reads window headers, headers of standard Windows elements, such as taskbar, system tray, etc. However, many items remain unrecognized because of the limited number of item classes GetWindowText works with. The program's capabilities are limited, but since it does not require installation, it is very easy to use, and the executable file weighs less than 50 kilobytes, it can be seen as a tool that can be useful in some specific cases.

GetWindowText allows users to easily extract text from various program windows and system elements, making information retrieval swift and uncomplicated.

GetWindowText is a tool that lets you easily send and share text from various Windows pop-ups. For example, let's say you want to capture the contents of an error message that you get to send to IT support for assistance, but aren't able to take a screenshot. You can use GetWindowText to easily read the field and copy over the information to a clipboard.

An incredibly lightweight and portable tool called GetWindowText lets you read the majority of panels content, from Modify to Static to Groupbox - Controls. The read may be initiated by pressing the left mouse button (drag) on the button with the GetWindowText icon and holding it down. It's possible to copy the window's title bar into a buffer using this approach. The panel must be a control in order to copy text from a control. To make use of this technique through the remote application interface , use CeGetWindowText . All Computer users should have this installed.
