  1. How do I automatically save my screenshots to a folder?


    Hello, I have assigned my prtscr key to snip screen and I need to save my screenshots automatically to a folder. Currently I have to open the screenshot I made from recent actions/notifications thing and click on save.

    How do I automate this action? So that I don't have to worry about taking multiple screenshots without losing previous ones.

    Thank you all for help.

    How do I save snip screenshots as .JPG?

    Hi,





    You can save a screenshot directly as a .jpeg file in the Snipping tool. You can do that by following these steps:


    • Press File.

    • Select Save As....

    • Choose a File name.

    • Select the drop-down besides Save as type.

    • Select JPEG file.

    • Press Save.



    Let us know how it goes.



    Regards.

  3. 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.
