where is print screen saved
Or how to use the Snipping Tool to take more advanced screenshots. With Windows 8, thereâs now an even easier way. To take a screenshot and save the image directly to a folder, press the Windows and Print Screen keys simultaneously. Youâll see your screen dim briefly, emulating a shutter effect. To find your saved screenshot head to the default screenshot folder, which is located in C:\Users[User]\My Pictures\Screenshots. By default, images are saved as PNG files with the name âScreenshotâ and a number designating how many screenshots have been taken.
