Windows Desktop Watermark with username

-

 Hi Guys,

I recently had a requirement from a client to implement a way to protect sensitive documents from being photographed from mobile devices and shared online. To mitigate this issue I made a windows application using C#.

You can get this application from the following url

Note: This is works only in Windows Operating Systems
