    ScreenShots Folder Not working as intended.

    I was following the advice of a thread on this topic but it's been locked I use the powershell option to bring up the registry list (I assume that's what I've got) and my Screenshots folder in my pictures does not appear on the list instead there is one
    listed in my D: Drive - which has me perplexed as I don't have a D; drive only a C; drive ......

    My Windows Key + print screen button was working up until I moved everything to an external hard drive to keep it safe when the laptop threatened with imminent death. (All fixed now) Windows has made a new screenshot folder / I may have left it empty in
    the same pictures folder.

    I took a few screenshots using the windows printscreen option and despite the dimming of the screen it's not saving the files anywhere - aka I search png and I have NO picture files come up int he search.

    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Using Windows 10, and the error only occured after emptying the pc of all the pictures and documents I had on it. It seems to be something that commonly occurs in the forum but couldn't find one that was current and complete.

  4. Screenshots folder not working

    Cannot locate screenshots

    I tried all the suggestions (troubleshooting the keyboard, uninstalling the keyboard driver and restarting, etc.). They didn't work.

    I skipped starting in safe mode.

    Then I went to the On-Screen keyboard, IT WORKED. It took a screenshot and put in on the clipboard. Also, a "Screenshots" folder was created in the Pictures folder.

    The actual keyboard still will not take screenshots, so I assume it is a keyboard software or hardware problem? I don't know what to do to fix it. What would be the next step?
