    I would like to take a screenshot only with a keyboard shortcut, without using mouse, and save the captured image automatically as a file (not as clipboard image to paste). This is exactly what win + prtscr does but I do not have a dedicated prtscr button on my compact keyboard. Thank you very much for helping.

    my screenshots are not saved to pictures folder where screenshots are saved by default on windows 10

    which method are you using to take screenshots?

    only windows key + print screen automatically saves the screenshot, print screen on its own saves it to the clipboard, alt+printscreen saves the active window to the clipboard
