Can't "Save Image as" on Community Content
I've been having this issue for about a week now, where I try to save an image from the Community Content tab (of any of my games) and it just... doesn't.
I click on the image, open the window, then right click and it shows the little "Save Image as" prompt, but clicking on it does absolutely nothing.
I used to be able to save screenshots with no issues before, does anyone know a fix to this or is experiencing the same?

thanks!

I noticed this also. It says alot of times i cannot save on a forum page. So what i do is go to the main store page. Re-open the sceensaver and recording tab, and then try to upload it. If your on a game's forum, it will not work. Good luck.

I'm having the same issue! Have you figured it out yet?

sadly no

only work around ive found is going to the steam page on google and searching the name of the steam user and searching for their screenshots
I got that problem 1h before and found the reason:

1) go to your Appdata/Local/Temp folder
2) there you find .tmp data(s)
3) search "your" one(s)
4) change the ending from .tmp to .jpg

Now you will have your picture(s). ;)

It would be easier to open the user profile and search for the image there,
then open it in the web browser and download it!
(I don't know why, but the web version of the image has the
same dimensions but only takes up a third of the space.^^)

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
