Where do the photos taken with camera saved?
I'm playing Sky on PC. I took a couple of photos with the camera and they have the little download icon at the bottom. I clicked on it but I can't figure out where they pictures are saved.
They are not in the documents or the steam screenshots folder. So, where are the pictures?

If it's not saved and you've made sure you clicked the download button after taking picture....

Below are what you can do to troubleshoot your problem:

[1] Make sure your Steam Overlay is working. Default "Shift + Tab" in game.

[2] Make sure Steam and the game have enough permission they need to do their stuffs like saving files and creating folders. To do that, you can set both Steam (Steam.exe) and the Game (Sky.exe) to run as admin in the Property.
(Right click file > Property > Compatibility Tab > Run This file as an Administrator ☑)

[3] Add Steam.exe and Sky.exe to your Windows Defender and Antivirus "Allow List" so it won't be blocked from creating the folder and files it needs to save the screenshots.

[4] Make sure your drivers is up to date and support the latest Vulkan 1.3 because Steam Overlay needs it. (But some Nvidia users reported that reverting to Vulkan 1.2 works for them, so you might want to give that a try as well)

[5] It's been a long known issues for Nvidia GFX having conflict with the Steam Overlay from time to time whenever there's an update from both software, causing Steam Screenshot to fail. You can try changing your Nvidia settings to prevent that.

[6] Make sure you have no 3rd party software that effect the lightings in the game, it may conflict with the game code. 3rd party software that change keybinds might effect the game code and conflict with the buttons as well.

[7] One of the game dev have confirmed that 3rd party software that may effect the game's rendering could cause performance problem (he's using Nvidia as well), including key mapping software. So you might want to take a look in that as well.

Do you have any software running in the background that might be interfering with the game? Software to control any lighting your system has? Or perhaps software used to rebind mouse buttons?

Thank you! Yeah, turns out the problem is I haven't allowed my steam overlay on the game.

As in I can open them with Shift + Tab but i thought that's enough to 'allow' steam overlay to function fully lol
Thank you for the answer! It really helped me 🙏

Yeahh turns out I haven't enabled my Steam Overlay in the game so it didn't saved any of my previous screenshots
And now they do open to that folder :D

(also idk how this works but ur folder direction has your steam userdata numbers on it so u should probably delete that comment? internet safety just in case)
Thank you tho! It did help me double check if I'm on the right direction~

Bonjour,

Désolée je m'exprime en français, je ne parle pas très bien l'anglais mais je le comprends assez bien.
Je rencontre aussi ce problème, je n'arrive pas à faire de capture d'écran ou de photo en jeu. Pourtant, ça fonctionne avec les autres jeux sans aucun soucis.

Steam Overlay fonctionne.
J'ai vérifié et ajuster les autorisations sur Windows Defender et AVG.
J'ai mis les programmes sky.exe et steam.exe en exécution en tant qu'administrateur.
Ma carte graphique est un peu vieille, mais je ne comprends pas pourquoi ça ferait que les captures d'écran ne fonctionnent pas seulement sur Sky alors que ça fonctionne sur mes autres jeux.

Quelqu'un saurait m'aider ?
