Windows 10: Onedrive Losing Screenshots

When I press win+prntscrn, the screen flashes, and the file shows up in "recent files" in quick access, but I don't know where it is saving them. I need to find them from a different account and can't find them.


Note: I looked through my screenshots folder.

Save screenshots taken using PrtScn to OneDrive

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



We understand that you want to save the screenshots taken using Prtscn directly to OneDrive.



We would suggest you to refer the steps mentioned in the article
Save screenshots to OneDrive automatically and see if that helps.



Let us know how it goes.

Windows 10 - OneDrive

Right click on the app and one of the properties has an option to not automatically start it. Uncheck, restart the computer, and it should stop. If you want to go another step further, find the OneDrive app in the start menu, right click on it and uninstall.

If that is still insufficient, there is a batch uninstaller for OneDrive available online. I can copy the code here if you need it.

 

W10 Mobile Lumia 830 Backup Not Being Saved to OneDrive

Thanks Chari San,

I understand I can not see what is contained in the backup stored on OneDrive, but I should see them listed. In my case there is not one being stored at all even though the phone reports it has backed up. See screenshots from OneDrive from my phone logged
into the same account the phone is and the backup settings page above. Without the backup on OneDrive my restored phone will lose at least call history, start screen setup and installed app list from what I have found.

Step #2 is not displayed on the new phone. (How can it restore a backup that is not on OneDrive at all). It skips over that step and I get a default install on the new phone without my call history, start page or app history. I'm not sure what else I
might be missing but for sure at least those 3 items do not come across.

How do I resolve this issue? Suggestions?
