Screenshots not saving to Document/elder scrolls online/live/screenshots after patch

Is anyone else having issues with their screenshots not saving where they always have? When I take a screenshot it gives the directory that it is supposed to go to but they are not there. I can not find them anywhere on my computer. This started yesterday after the patch for me. Anyone else?

✭✭✭✭When I had this issue it was the Anti Virus that caused it. Try adding everything ESO as exception. Might work for you too.0 -

Thanks I will check but I know it was cleared and in there before. Perhaps something removed it

Update: Odd thing screenshots work as expected on my steam ESO account but running my regular ESO account I noticed the screenshots not working as expected on that one. Not sure why it works on steam and not the regular account.0 -
Fenris_Arainai✭✭✭✭Mine save normally, non-Steam.
Any chance maybe your keybind to the screenshot ability got unbound?Glory to you and your Dunmer House!0 -

Sorted mine, although it did indeed show the printscreen as bound I unbound it and re-bound it and it works fine now.2 -

✭many other posts about this
mine are also not working
this is not the first time this happens
have checked all the things others have posted and nada
yay for running a paint program in the background to get screens off my clipboard
because this game has no way for us to access the path

Jack-0✭✭✭✭✭Same problem here, I tried changed the keybinding from print screen to numpad minus key and that didn't help. It wouldn't even let me change it back to print screen on that character!
I also tested mapping an extra button on my mouse to print screen and that didn't make a difference. I can use print screen in the rest of Windows and it works normally - confirming it's not a problem with that button on my keyboard.
I don't have any interference from OneDrive or similar taking over the print screen key. I would very much like this function back now please ZOS.0 -
werewafflesSoul ShrivenDo you have video multithreading enabled? Finally figured out having this feature enabled seems to prevent screenshots from saving to the usual file location for me; after turning it off and restarting the game, works exactly as intended and vice versa. Hopefully this can be addressed in the near future.3

Jack-0✭✭✭✭✭Interesting, I do have the new multithreading enabled. I just got the ability to take screenshots working again today though, after seeing a thread on Reddit about it. My ESO folder in Documents was labelled as read only, and simply toggling that back off didn't work, but then I also went into the folder's properties > security > advanced and even though I was already listed as having full control I went through the motions of adding my account again and granting full control anyway. That seems to have sorted it!

Got a chuckle out of this. This is why I am wary after any update and especially so of any fancy new feature.Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.***Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis0 -

✭✭✭Hmm I've had no issue, I have multithreading enabled and my screenshots have always gone to the same place.....
I take a lot of them too, so definitely always worked.
