How to change the location of screenshot in windows 10/11? #windows

 To change the default location where screenshots are saved in Windows 10, you can follow these steps:

For Screenshots Taken with the Print Screen Key

  1. Open the Pictures Library:

    • Open File Explorer and go to the "Pictures" library.
  2. Locate the Screenshots Folder:

    • Find the "Screenshots" folder. By default, this is where screenshots are saved.
  3. Move the Screenshots Folder:

    • Right-click the "Screenshots" folder and select "Properties".
    • Go to the "Location" tab.
    • Click the "Move..." button.
    • Choose the new location where you want the screenshots to be saved.
    • Click "Select Folder", then click "Apply".
  4. Confirm the Move:

    • A prompt will appear asking if you want to move all of the files from the old location to the new location. Click "Yes".

For Screenshots Taken with Snipping Tool or Snip & Sketch

Screenshots taken with Snipping Tool or Snip & Sketch typically prompt you to choose a save location when you save the screenshot. If you want a more automated approach, consider using a third-party screenshot tool that allows setting a default save location.

Using OneDrive

If you use OneDrive, you can also change the default save location to OneDrive, which offers cloud backup and easy access from multiple devices.

  1. Right-click the OneDrive Icon:

    • Click the OneDrive icon in the system tray (notification area).
  2. Go to Settings:

    • Click "More" and then select "Settings".
  3. Auto Save:

    • Go to the "Backup" tab.
    • Under "Screenshots", check the box that says "Automatically save screenshots I capture to OneDrive".

This will change the default save location for screenshots to a Screenshots folder in your OneDrive directory.

By following these methods, you can easily change the default location for screenshots on your Windows 10 system.
