  1. How do I save screenshots to a LOCAL drive, and NOT one drive?????


    I have been fighting this for several days, now. I want my screenshots to be saved on a local drive i.e. hard drive, external drive, thumb drive, etc. I have read several explanations on how to do it, but none of them have been successful.Every explanation I have read says to right-click on the 'screenshots' folder, and select "properties" from the drop-down. So far, so good. When I click "properties" I'm supposed to click on the "locations" tab. But it doesn't show a "locations" tab. It's the same on TWO computers. Both running Win10.So how do I get around this?? I have been scouring the inte

    Optical Drive Issue

    Hello Anak –

    Appreciate your detailed return. Your added steps really helped.

    Assuming I did the steps correctly, this is where I am now.

    Screenshot 12 shows my CD Disc shortcut on my desktop.
    Screenshot 10 shows the CD Drive shortcut listed in the “Send to” listing.
    Screenshot 11 shows the “Send to” listing after the steps were taken, but the CD drive name is not listed.

    So, it appears the steps did not work for me. And, I did try the steps, “If it still won’t do ……” and still no luck.

    What do you think?

    Optical Drive Issue

    Hi Jerry, you're welcome.

    Here's mine after I rt clk'd on my Documents Folder like you show in Scrsht 11:

    How do I save screenshots to a LOCAL drive, and NOT one drive????? 264204d1579788485t-optical-drive-issue-send-.png


    I'd like to wait until you reply to my question in Scrsht 12, if it is a remnant of the process try deleting the one on the dsktp and see if the one in send to also disappears. If it stays in send to, test it, and if you're still having problems I'd suggest you could go back to: Option One: To Add or Remove Items in Send To context menu for Your Account (current user) and do Step 3 to remove it and start over using Step 4 but be very careful of your steps in creating the shortcut and be sure you d&d that shortcut to the send to part of the address.

    I'm busy today and I probably won't be back until the evening.
