Use loader.exe to take screenshots of your #BlackBerry

This post is also available in: Dutch

If you have a BlackBerry, taking screenshots can be a great help when making manuals.
You can do this by using a tool called loader.exe, which is a part of the BlackBerry Desktop Manager.
This program can be found in folder C:\Program Files\Common Files\Research in Motion\AppLoader (on 32 bit systems). On 64 bit PC’s it is the C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research in Motion\AppLoader folder.

Connect the BlackBerry to your PC, open a Command Prompt, go to the directory mentioned above and start:

loader.exe /screenshot filename.bmp

to take a ‘picture’ of your BlackBerry’s active screen.
