Windows 10: Auto save screenshots to file

When I take a screenshot, the screenshot is saved in clipboard when the option, 'Auto copy to clipboard' is turned on. However, if I want to save the image, I should save it manually every time I take screenshots. Plus, if I took the screenshot with the shortkey, Ctrl+Shift+S, without opening the Snipping Tool app, it is very annoying work to save the image to file. I want an option 'Auto save to file' with default location e.g. Pictures/Screenshots so that I don't have to save the images every time.

Auto-Save Screenshots?

I noticed that besides auto-saving screenshots in onedrive I have to hold the Windows key and PrtScn for it to save to a folder. Is there a way that just pressing the PrtScn button could just save it to a folder?

 

excel not auto recovering and manually saving

Hi,

The concern you have encountered with Excel not auto saving may be due to a corrupted file or a misconfigured setting.

May we ask if you have 3rd party software running when using Excel? If yes, we suggest to temporarily disable it to isolate the issue.

Any changes made on your computer prior to the issue?

Have you tried any possible troubleshooting steps? If yes, what are those steps and did you get any error messages?

You can turn-on the auto save option by the following steps:

• Open Excel
  
• Go to File then Options
  
• Under Save option, check the 'Save AutoRecovery information in every' option
  

the best way to check when auto save is disabled is to hover over the toggle and read the reason that the popup tool tip identifies. Simply follow the steps provided in this

article.

According to this
article the autosave function will be disabled when the file is in the old file format .xls.

Kindly keep us posted with the results.

Regards.
