What's the screenshots folder for?

There is a screenshots folder inside the Madden19 folder in the Documents folder. Does anyone know what that is for? If it's for the snapshots that you take in-game while in the instant replay mode, then how do they get into that folder. Mine is empty right now. Trying to find out because I would love to utilize some of the snapshots that I take in instant replay mode.

If they aren't going there, look in your computer's pictures folder and see if a screenshots folder has been created there and is storing them there. Are you using the Home button and "Print screen" button to take your screenshots?

Re: What's the screenshots folder for?

Using the Home button and Print screen buttons simultaneously do nothing. I have a screenshots filter inside the Pictures folder that I store all my photos in and they're not showing up there either. Any other thoughts?
I normally have to use the snipping tool, but that doesn't work in-game. I just got it though. What I have to do is press the ALT and PrintScreen buttons together and that save a copy to my clipboard. I then open up Photoshop and paste that into a new file.

Does F12 take pictures in Origin games? I forget what the Origin command is, but when you use that it will go into that game's screenshot folder.

If you have/use NVIDIA GeForce Experience.. ALT-F1 will take a screenshot.

I'd open the Nvidia overlay and go to settings to say where to save them.

Assuming this will work with Madden.. I haven't tried personally..

Unless they've added one, Origin never had a screen shot function..

Re: What's the screenshots folder for?

Use Alt + F1 (by default) if you have a NVIDIA card - saves them to VIDEOS>Madden 19

Otherwise - use Windows key + print screen and it’ll save to pictures>screenshots.

Windows Key+print screen works, but it saves a printscreen of both desktops at once. Is there some setting that I'm missing where you can take just a printscreen of my main monitor? In doing a little research on this I could take a printscreen of the Madden 19 window, but that copies to the clipboard and I would have to copy that into PS anyway. So the ALT+Printscreen function that I talked about above is still a better option. Thoughts?
