    Clicking on the 'Screenshot saved' notification does not open File Explorer.


    I'm running it on two PC's.

    Bad PC - it used to work. After taking a screenshot - full screen or active window it used to open File Explorer 'Screenshots' location when I clicked in the notification panel. Something broke, and it doesn't do it anymore.


    Good PC - everything works 'as advertised' - clicking the panel opens the Explorer in the 'Screenshots' location.


    I tried to move the location and changed the properties of 'screenshots' folder - first one still behaves this way, the second one works correctly.


    Any help? Thanks for your time!

    :)

  2. Clicking on notification of screenshots automatically saved to OneDrive no longer opens Screenshots folder

    Clicking on notification of screenshots automatically saved to OneDrive no longer opens Screenshots folder whereas it did previously. Screenshot is automatically saved in that folder but it now requires opening the folder manually.

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    NEW Unigine Valley Benchmark 1.0 Scores

    O.k. let's do this one more time(been done pretty much twice in this thread already). Now pay attention. I'm going to go through it step by step again, in thorough detail this time. This is for Windows 10. But most of it will apply to earlier OSs. You just have to adjust the method accordingly.
    • Press F12 at the end of the benchmark when your score is shown to take a screenshot of it
    • Then open File Explorer > This PC > C: (or whichever drive your OS is installed on) > Users > User Name > Valley > screenshots
    • Find the screenshot with your high score in the screenshots folder(preview it by left clicking on it to be sure you've got the correct one, if there are many to choose from)
    • Point to and right click on the screenshot with your high score > point to Open with > then point to and left click on Paint
    • In Paint point to and left click on File > then point to Save as > then point to and left click on JPEG picture > then, after taking note of where the JPEG picture is going to be saved, point to and left click on Save
    • You can now post the screenshot in this thread by using Upload a File at the bottom right of the page
    • To do so point to and left click on Upload a File > then point to and left click on Browse > then point to and select(by left clicking on) the screenshot from wherever it was saved during step #5
    • Now that you've uploaded the screenshot to TPU, insert it into your post by pointing to and left clicking on Thumbnail or Full Image(under the file name and Insert: )
    • That's how easy this is to post a high quality FULL screenshot for this thread people *Smile Clicking on the 'Screenshot saved' notification does not open File Explorer. :)
    See.
