    Opening screenshot from Action Center opens System32 folder instead.


    As the title says this has happened twice in the last week. I would take a screenshots with the prt sc key, and if I try to open it from the Action Center, System32 opens instead of the Screenshots folder in OneDrive. It only happened twice so far (out of maybe 15 screenshots), so I'm just curious if anyone else had it happen to them?

    System32 Folder

    No that is not normal,

    You should see:

    System

    System32

    SystemApps

    Capital S on all folders

    Can you open the system32 folder set the view to list from the view ribbon and provide a screenshot of the contents of that folder

    Feedback folder in pictures with screenshots of my desktop right after the anniversary update

    According to this (now locked) thread ( Query about feedback folder appearing from nowhere )

    this happens whenever you use the keyboard shortcut that formerly opened the "Find..." interface (Win+F).

    Now it instead opens the Feedback center, which takes a screenshot right before showing its window.

    Opening screenshot from Action Center opens System32 folder instead.

    When I try to save a Netgear switch config file it open the system32 folder instead of my documents folder. Still haven't figured it out.

    Thanks for the reply. Must be a bug somewhere. When did it start for you?

    I got the switch right after the Creators update, so really not sure if it was before then or not.
    Then with the last update a new %LOCALAPPDATA% folder showed up unhidden when i open the windows folder;has a crashdumps and dbg folder in it.

    Other than that all is good, I hope lol
