Thread: Screenshots

  1. #1

    Default Screenshots

    When I press print screen to take a screenshot it is not automatically saving into my tgas folder. I have anti-aliasing off already and I am at a loss to explain why this is, or isn't, happening. I know I could use fraps or something similar but I have always used print screen and it has been fine for me.

    How about supplying some technical details such as the operating system? I know that Vista, for instance, will put user created files in the 'virtual store'.

    Where is the 'virtual store'? Yes I am using Vista but I have been for a while, why would it stop putting screenshots in the tgas folder? At least I presume I have taken a screen shot whilst using Vista.

    Found them, thanks. I had absolutely no idea that Vista did that. I could understand it if I knew absolutely nothing about computers but I do.

    If you read the threads it's done to 'protect' the Windows files from being overwritten by accident. It's just one of the things to lean before you try and use Vista - imagine how hard that would be if you were one of the first people to use Vista?

    Anyway, resolved & closed.
