Camera and screen capture - managing pictures

Managing captured pictures is possible for all of the parts of “Camera and screen capture”.
Each picture can be named a selected Type (Phone photo, Contacts, Emails, etc.…).

• In some options, such as "Manual screenshots", images can be removed. This is not possible in the "Smart Screenshots" option.…

• The result is created as a .csp file which can be re-imported in Specific selection to be included in an final evidential report.

If MOBILedit Forensic is closed before the extraction and creation of the report output, and the processing and capture are completed, the screenshots will remain in the temporary folder until the next time MOBILedit Forensic is started.
