Albums are not being created automatically

Hello John,

Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

I understand the inconvenience you have experienced.

The Photos app creates albums for you from groups of related photos. Not all of the related photos will be in each album. If you have several similar photos, it’ll select what looks like the best one. You can always edit the album if you prefer different
photos.

Where, Screenshots, Saved Pictures and Camera Rolls are the albums which system will create automatically for you. You can follow the below mentioned steps to Create and Edit albums as per your requirement.

Create an album

• Open the Photos app, select Albums, select +, and then
• 
  Select your photos, and then select Done (the check mark).
  
• 
  Select Change cover, choose the photo you want at the top, and then select
  Done.
  
• 
  Select the title text and type a new title.
  
• 
  Select Save.
  

Edit album

• 
  Open the album in the Photos app, select Edit (the pencil), and do any of the following:
  
  • 
    Select Add or remove photos, select the ones you want, and then select
    Done.
    
  • 
    Select Change cover, choose a new photo, and then select Done.
    
  • 
    Select the title and type a new title.
    
• 
  Select Save.

Save screenshots taken using PrtScn to OneDrive

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



We understand that you want to save the screenshots taken using Prtscn directly to OneDrive.



We would suggest you to refer the steps mentioned in the article

Screenshots no longer automatically saved in Screenshots folder

For nearly 3 years, the PRT SC (print screen) button on my HP Envy laptop automatically saved screenshots in a folder called Screenshots. While I still have functionality of clicking PRT SC and can then paste the image by CTRL-V, the images are no longer
automatically being saved in the Screenshots folder or any folder as far as I can tell. What changed and how can this be fixed? I use DropBox, not OneDrive, so please no suggestions re OneDrive. Thanks.
