Windows 10: Screenshot Viewer

I frequently take screenshots of a portion of my window using the Windows + Shift + S shortcut, and until recently whenever I would take a screenshot a thumbnail would pop up in the lower right corner of the screen which I could click to open up the screenshot in Photos. That's no longer happening and I'm not sure why, anyone know how to turn that back on? Much more convenient for quick reference than opening up Paint or something similar and pasting the image there. TIA!

task viewer icon(virtual desktop)

I have the same problem. The task viewer icon was there but is now gone. I have gone through the steps you listed but no viewer. Then I created a new profile and the task viewer is there. Now, how do I get the task viewer back in my taskbar in my
original profile??

 

Lock vs Login screen screenshot

Hi Josey -

Thanks for the quick reply. While your suggestion does change the sign in process, it doesn't address the differing screenshot question. Following the steps doesn't make the login screenshot the same as the Lock screenshot. As I mentioned, I can't even find the screenshots being used for both screens.

Still looking a solution to this. Open to any other suggestions you might have to the problem. Thanks!
