Where did my screenshots go?

You haven't uploaded the screenshot yet, so it won't be on your profile. in Steam's main menu, click on "View" -> "Screenshots".

View Menu with Screenshots highlighted

You can then pick the game to show at the top, and that will show all the screenshots you've ever made in that game, uploaded or not.


In the event that you cannot open Steam (perhaps you are accessing the screenshots from another file system), with some digging you can find the actual image files on your computer.

On a Windows install of Steam, use the following path:

C:\Program Files\Steam\userdata\[USER_ID]\760\remote\[GAME_ID]\screenshots

The USER_ID and GAME_ID will be string of numbers, and vary depending on what your Steam ID is and what game you are seeking your screenshots for. For further reading on how to find those fields, see:

  • USER ID: How can I find my Steam ID?
  • GAME ID: How can I find the ID for a game on Steam?

  1. Go to the game where you took your screenshot.

  2. Press Shift key and the Tab key to go to the Steam menu.

  3. Go to the screenshot manager and click "SHOW ON DISK".

  4. Voilà! You have your screenshots where you want them!
