Fleeting Flurry Mac OS

broken image


A library of over 125,000 free and free-to-try software applications for Mac OS.

By default, Mac screenshots are saved to the desktop. Today, I'm going to show you how to change this to any location of your choosing.

If you are running macOS 10.14 (Mojave), macOS 10.15 (Catalina) or newer, it's very easy. All you need to do is first press Command + Shift + 5, to bring up the screenshot controls, then click on Options, then either choose a folder from those listed or Other Location. Selecting Other Location brings up a Finder window that will allow you to choose any folder on your Mac.

The new location is saved and will be used for all future screenshots. That's all there is to it.

This is a Windows version of Flurry, the default screensaver in the Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar operating system. Originally created by Calum Robinson, and based on the Seraphim screensaver for Windows, it features colorful, smoke-like, randomly generated 'flurries' that smoothly spread out from a central point on your screen. Multi-monitor support is available, allowing you to assign a new flurry on each monitor. Furthermore, you can choose between fives types of flurry, namely 'classic', 'RGB', 'water', 'fire' and 'psychedelic', but you can also optionally use the Flurry Editor to create your own designs.

by Cara on June 2, 2019

When I previewed the Flurry screen saver, it just nothing.

by Gilbert on October 19, 2018

I was reluctant after I noticed this and other screensavers on here tested as having viruses according to some (but not all) anti-virus programs. I had my antivirus company (a reputable one) test the file. They assured me all the bad results were false positives. I can only vouch for this one. This screensaver does NOT contain any viruses whatsoever.

I wish more screensavers looked like this one. Simple, and dark background (doesn't light up the whole room when it's dark).

This wonderful screensaver was one of the few things I liked about Mac more than Windows. Now I can have it on my Windows 10. It looks amazing. :)
