Users who install the file tschelp.exe, whether deliberately or the file was installed by some other software, execute a process called TechSmith HTML Helper. The file is generally installed with the software for Snagit, but as mentioned, it can also be installed by another program that provides the application as an add-on. The main function of the file is to enable users to capture screen images, whether the entire screen or just a portion of it, and then save on the PC. The screen-captured image can then be saved in the following file extensions: .jpeg, .bmp, .gif, .tif, and .png. The file is considered as a trusted file, posing no security risks to the computer. In particular, the file has never been found to be a browser hijacker, malware, adware, spyware, or Trojan. Errors that occur with the file are usually because of wrong configurations, missing registry keys, and corrupt .dll files. The software is from TechSmith Corporation.
