After installing Windows 10 (which comes included with OneDrive by default), when you press the Print Screen button on the keyboard to capture a screenshot, you’ll be asked to save screenshots to OneDrive (check the picture below), when you click OK to that at that time, this is how you can change that later.

OneDrive Screenshots folder location
You can access captures saved this way by clicking on OneDrive folder on the left pane in File Explorer and by reaching the Pictures >Screenshots folder.
FYI, these screenshots will also be automatically uploaded and added to your online storage if you’re connected to internet, which may cause you to lose your valuable space in OneDrive online. You can avoid that from happening by following the steps mentioned below.

Disable OneDrive’s auto-screenshot saving feature in Windows 10
1.Right click on the OneDrive icon in the system tray
2. Select ‘Settings’, click on ‘Auto Save’ tab and uncheck Automatically save screenshots I capture to OneDrive and click ‘OK’
3. Similarly, you may also want to disable ‘automatically save photos and videos to OneDrive whenever I connect a camera, Phone, or other device to my PC’ if it is already enabled by default.
This was exactly what I wanted to know, but it looks like under the unified system of Windows 10, my Windows 10 Phone would likely stop saving my screenshots to my OneDrive as well. I want my phone to continue to upload its screenshots, and since there’s no separation of choices, it looks like I’ll have to keep this checkbox checked.
Thank you for the post though.
