I just tried (closed GreenShot first) and you are right, it works as you said, thanks! I have been using GreenShot since more than 10 years ago so I did not know about this. Since many many years ago, whenever I build a new computer, I go to ninite.com and select the software I want to install, including GreenShot, and install them, so they are always available in all my computers, so I do not learn many new tricks :)
