  1. Why can't I find any screenshots in my screenshot folder whenever I press windows + Prtsc?


    The screenshot folder only saves photos that I took when using snipping tool but other than that, if I use the default way Windows + Prtsc then it won't save.

  2. How to save screenshots to the Screenshots folder using just the PrtSc key on Windows 10?

    I used to take screenshots all the time just by hitting the PrtSc key on my keyboard, and they would always go right to This PC > Pictures > Screenshots, but it hasn't been working like this recently. Now, instead of going to my Screenshots folder, it just copies to my clipboard, so I have to paste it and then save it in order to keep the screenshot when I didn't have any of these additional steps before.

    I believe the issue started sometime after I first tried using Snip & Sketch where I'd hit windows+shift+S. My computer hasn't taken screenshots the same way after that. I'd prefer not to do it this way however, because it also requires the additional steps of pasting it and saving it, and because it requires multiple keys to be pressed.

    Now I am able to save screenshots directly to my Screenshots folder by hitting Windows+PrtSc but this requires the use of two hands, which is impractical for me.

    How can I save screenshots the way I used to by just pressing the PrtSc key?

  3. PrtSc screenshots

    PrtSc screenshots used to got to OneDrive>Pictures>Screenshots -- up thru 3-25-19; now they disappear into space. There is no Screenshots folder in User>Pictures. Where else could they be going?
