  3. Textractor

    Extracts text from video games and visual novels. Highly extensible.

    Steam - lots of games in Japanese, including Visual Novels. Textractor - tool for extracting text from Visual Novels and copying them to clipboard. Combined with Clipboard Inserter, texthooker.html, and 10ten, it makes reading Visual Novels a breeze. ShareX - OCR tool, handy for games and manga. I use it similarly to Textractor, combined with Clipboard Inserter, texthooker.html, and 10ten.

  4. ShareX

    ShareX is a free and open source program that lets you capture or record any area of your screen and share it with a single press of a key. It also allows uploading images, text or other types of files to many supported destinations you can choose from.
