Hello my fellow players as the titel states, i can't seem to get screenshots to work for me.
It simply doesn't show up anything in the screenshot folden. Ingame i get the "screen captured" note, but still nothing in my folder.
Best regards Vrål.

Your screenshot are saved as .tga files, so if you use an image viewer for e.g. JPG, GIF or PNG, then the files will not be shown.
To actually see the images, you need to convert them from .tga to another format - either by downloading a program to do so, or use an online converter.

The Screenshots folder comes with a TGAtoJPA converter automatically, as for why your screenshots aren't appearing you'll need to give more information.
Where is your WoW folder located? What operating system are you using?

They should end up somewhere in Users/AppData/Local/VirtualStore/Programfiles/wow folder etc.
Your wtf settings are also saved there. Why they save in that location rather than the C/Programfiles/WoW is beyond me.

Hey Vrål,
Your screenshots may be here:
- Code: Select all
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft Classic\Screenshots
You could also try searching your computer for "WoWScrnShot"
The reason it saves in the VirtualStore is because the WoW client does not have proper permissions to write data in Program Files.

Thank you all for your input!
I did find it in AppData folder. At first the map was hidden (wierd)..
Thanks again, good luck and see you in the World Of Warcraft!
Cheers.
