Where is the Screenshots folder?

[Roulette Dantes]

I've tried every suggestion I could find through google, every reddit thread, and even Larian's own forum, but NONE of them give me directions to a folder that actually exists on my PC. Some say there's a folder in the \Steam\userdata, but not for me... I have looked EVERYWHERE, in every subfolder, even ones with just numbers for names... nothing. My Snips folder... nothing. WHY IS THIS SO HARD? I've been looking for HOURS at this point!

I am LOATHE to copy-paste Each. Individual. Screenshot. One. At. A. Time. Into. Photoshop... just to paste and save them, one-by-one... I've made like 50 screenshots already, and I want them! WHERE ARE THEY?

Oh why! I just wrote all this into that other thread (deleted now, was a hard necro anyway xD)...

If you took them via Steam then you should have a "Screenshots window" in your library on the game page (on the right side, under the "Achievements", "Friends that play", "DLC" etc. "windows"). Or look in the Steam menu under "<your username>" → "Content" → "Screenshots" (although that might only show the ones uploaded into the cloud).

Steam will save them on your harddrive under something like "<your Steam directory>\userdata\<a number>\<another number>\remote\<yet another number>\screenshots\" (you might just search for "*.jpg" in that "userdata" directory).
I just verified that on my Steam folder...

You could also just use an external tool for the screenshots - I myself use simply the "MSI Afterburner" because I have it installed anyway, where I can simply set the save path (and it also works with non-Steam games, which is a big point for me...).

PS: In Steam, in "Settings" is a point "In Game" where you can change the well, settings ;) for screenshots, including defining an external folder where screenshots should be saved (down where you also can define the key that is used for screenshots and where you activate "save as external copy").

I was finally able to find the folder through Steam, which still doesn't have any of the screenshots I took earlier, BUT that ~also~ let me find Steam's settings for screenshots, so I was able to change what folder they go to, but I can still only actually take screenshots with F12, which actually puts the files where they're supposed to go, but... my Print Screen button still won't work, so I can't pre-crop my screencaps, which is a pain, but, at least it's a workaround that actually gives me screencaps! Trying to change the Screenshot shortcut key to Print Screen doesn't work... it just triggers the Snipping overlay to try to take a screenshot... >_<

Anyway, THANK YOU! <3

I emailed Larian, maybe they can tell me how to get my Print Screen key working...
