  2. Cannot locate screenshots

    Thank you for the suggestions.

    I followed instructions in https://www.intowindows.com/fix-windows-10-not-...

    but the screenshot that I took was not listed where is was supposed to be (in Recents).

    The recommended link https://www.digitalcitizen.life/how-change-defa...

    tells me to click on the screenshots folder, but as you know I don't have that folder.

    NOTE:

    When I click the Windows key plus PrntScr, the screen does NOT dim. Instead, the "Start" menu appears.

    So I think that that key combination is not saving the screenshot at all, anywhere. That would explain why there is nothing on the clipboard.

    Do you have any suggestions for verifying that the Windows key plus PrntScr is taking the screenshot?

    Vista Ultimate - 'User' Folder Location

    No tried that.

    Can copy the entire folder to D; but Windows still points to C as the location. Can change personal folders location to a folder on D;, but this still leaves hidden files etc on C;. Thus meaning there are 2 Users folders. Have managed to change the Public folder location to D;, with some registry tweaks, but this doesnt seem to work for the entire folder.

    any more suggestions
