Windows 10: Unable to take a screenshot, nor screenrecord, nor use gamebar cameratools

I dont know what happened but i suddenly can't take screenshots anymore.When i press PrtSc, the tool opens up and i select of what i want a screenshot.But when i selected of what i want a screenshot the tool closes like it is supposed to, but the image is not saved on my device.Weirdly enough, the image is accesible in my clipboard.Also in the GamBar Wind + G under camera, all three options are dark-greyed out and when i click nothing happens.

Screenshots/ screenrecordings not getting saved........

Hello everyone, I need HELP in ANY POSSIBLE WAY.

so, last month i moved my all Pictures to my external hard drive, including the folders like Camera roll, Screenshots etc.

few days after that i tried using camera and it didn't work, i eventually figured out that it's because I don't have any "Camera Roll" folder. I created it, and it worked.

Now the problem for me right now is Screenshots Folder. Usually, i take screenshot using Snip and Sketch (Win+Shift+S) so i manually save them to my Pictures folder.

Last week, i took screenshots using Win+PRNT SC , usually they would've been saved in Screenshots folder, but as i didn't have any such folder, they didn't got saved.

so in past week i tried things and found that even if I create a new "Screenshots" folder, it doesn't work like it did with Camera Roll.

When i plug in my HDD, any screenshot gets saved in the "Screenshots" folder in my HDD.

and if I move that folder to anywhere else in my Computer, the screenshots get saved there.

Its like saving screenshots is linked with that specific folder, no matter where it is, screenshots would be saved there only.

and if its removed, screenshots wouldn't be saved.

Now none of this is my problem right now as you've seen i've figured this thing out.

what my problem right now is that I want the screenshots which I took last week using Win+PrntSC, which aren't saved anywhere in my computer, because I didn't have the "Screenshots" folder.

(this is also applicable to Xbox Game bar screenshots and screenrecordings, which are saved in same folder "Screenshots")

these screenshots are very very very important to me, including some once in a life moments.

I just want to know if there is ANY POSSIBLE WAY, i can recover those screenshots.

also, i found one Screenshot (out of multiple screenshots) which I took yesterday in my Users/(my user)/appdata/local/temp

and, i also found a Screen Recording which I did using Xbox game bar to check where it gets saved. Most of Screenrecordings didn't got saved but i found this "one" screenrecording in the same "temp" folder mentioned above.

I tried finding others there, but none of them was there, only this one screenshot and one screenrecording, which gives me hope that these screenshots which i took past week must be somewhere temporarily or whatever else..

I don't care if i need to use third party apps which can possibly steal my data, but if it gives me back my last week screenshots, i'm ready to take the risk.

put please.. i've hope that i can recover them...

thanks for any help❤

 

Gamebar process problem

Hi,

The Gamebar Presence Writer is automatically enabled on your computer if you opened the Game bar and play a game. This process allows you to record video clips from your games.

If you are playing a game and you want to disable the Gamebar Presence Writer, follow the steps below:

• Click Start, and then type Task Manager in the search box.
• Select Task Manager.
• Under Processes, look for Gamebar Presence Writer, and then press the
  End task button.

To disable Game bar, here are the steps:

• Launch Xbox app, and then go to Settings
  
  .
• Click Game DVR.
• Turn off Record game clips and screenshots using Game DVR.

Gamebar process problem

Yeah, Like many people here have commented I have disabled everything in relation to Windows Game mode, gamedvr and gamebar in the settings menu. When that failed to fix the issue, I disabled everything in the registry in relation to game mode, gamedvr and
gamebar. That stupid gamebar presence process was still there. Then I used powershell to remove the xbox app. Still there. It only started doing this today. Please get rid of this crap and give me back control over what runs on my own computer.

Thanks.
