The three utilities the developer names

Utilities explicitly listed by the developer; a bounded set, not every icon shown on an old desktop
UtilityDocumented interactionCheck the purpose
Paint appCreate drawings within the simulated desktop.A drawing belongs to the in-game utility; no external image editor is required by the listing.
Screen recorderRecord the in-game screen.Do not assume the captured screen is automatically a real video file exported to your PC.
CameraTake pictures inside the office simulation.The original retaliation clip also displays a Camera window facing a coworker and desk.

Your desktop is different from a caller’s computer

These utilities are tools on the simulated desktop. The separately described remote-access mechanic interacts with a fictional caller’s computer. Opening paint or the camera does not itself establish a remote session or complete an earning transaction.

For the money-making loop, follow how to play and the daily quota. For conversation input and feedback, use AI callers.

Availability and completion limits

Use the apps actually offered in your installed build and workday. Dated recordings describe apps being added or moved in the unlock schedule; a promotional desktop full of icons is not a complete current app catalogue.

The primary material reviewed here does not establish universal keyboard shortcuts, a save/export path, a recording format or a durable gallery across runs. Check the app’s displayed result in the current build before relying on an export. The presence of a screen-recorder feature is not evidence of an MP4 appearing in a particular Windows folder.

The boss review can replay a conversation, as the narrated starter video shows. That review playback is a separate demonstrated feature; it does not prove that every clip was captured using the desktop screen recorder.
