Windows 10: Folder choice for snip image save

How can I set my own choice of default folder in which to save the snip image?I usually choose a different folder than the [personal] Screenshots folder, but my system never remembers it.

Snipped images won't save;

I have recently upgraded my Lenovo ThinkCentre desktop to Windows 11. I frequently use the snipping tool to copy images. I then save them to my pictures folder. Since upgrading, however, Snipping Tool images won't save. I follow the standard procedure: snip the image (no problem); click the "save as" icon in the upper right corner; the directory pops up; I write a file name; click save. I then get a popup "File not found." It's as if the Save As command is actually a search command and, of course, it can't find the file I'm trying to save. Any suggestions? (I'm not much of a tech person.) Here's a photo I just tried to save and the message I get:

 

Snipping Tool Enlarging Images

Hi Heather,

Snipping Tool has various options on how you can capture images in your computer. To change it to normal snipping, follow the steps below:

• Press Windows + S to open Search Box.
• Type Snipping Tool, then click it.
• Click New.
• Click the drop-down menu in New.
• Select Rectangular Snip.

Let us know if this works for you.

 

Snipping Tool No Options available when Shortcut is used

Hi,

When I use the shortcut (Wind_Shift_S) or the Print Screen Key for the snipping tool in Windows 11 I don't get options/features of saving the image as I do when starting the app and using the app for screen capture.

1. Is there a way to configure the app so that I get the options when I use the shortcuts? For example when I screen grab something, I am not presented with the option of saving the image goes straight to the Photos folder. When I use the app I can choose where to save the image - this is much better because 100% of the times I want those snips to be filed in corresponding folders.
   
2. Also, I had no idea that the snipping tool saves automatically to the Photos folder (when using shortcut/Print screen key. I don't like this because then I have to go and clear manually random screen grabs from the folder. Or go to this folder to get the image and put in a folder that had to go on the first place - annoying multi-step process.
   

Thank you!
