    Cant find screenshots after switching to new pc


    I got a new pc yesterday and now when i take a screenshot it doesnt go to screenshots folder. I tried searching "screenshot" in C: but it only showed the screenshots from my last device. I tried going to the picture folder but there was none, only a onedrive cloud picture folder. And when i disabled onedrive sync for pictures folder, i could see the local screenshots folder, but when i tried taking a new screenshot it didnt appear there and the only thing in all of the folders inside the Pictures folder was a shortcut to the onedrive screenshot folder named "Shortcut to Screenshots OneDrive -

    :)

    Lock vs Login screen screenshot

    Hi Josey -

    Thanks for the quick reply. While your suggestion does change the sign in process, it doesn't address the differing screenshot question. Following the steps doesn't make the login screenshot the same as the Lock screenshot. As I mentioned, I can't even find the screenshots being used for both screens.

    Still looking a solution to this. Open to any other suggestions you might have to the problem. Thanks!
