    Hello Greg,

    Your suggested methods does not work. Anyway, I have solved the issues by restoring the history files (windows 11). I am still confused as to how the screenshots folder can be missing. Thanks for your kind help.

    Hey there, gslamba,

    Welcome to Microsoft community.

    I'm very sorry to hear about the issue of your missing screenshots folder. One thing I'd like to confirm with you is, if you take a screenshot again, will the screenshots folder reappear?

    To take a screenshot on your Surface Pro 4, follow these steps:

    1. Full-screen screenshot: Press the Power button and the Volume Up button simultaneously. This will take a screenshot of your entire screen and save it to the Screenshots folder in your Pictures library.
    2. Snipping Tool: Open the Snipping Tool app from the Start menu. This app allows you to take a screenshot of a specific area on your screen. Once you capture a screenshot, you can save it to any folder you want.
    This will help us determine if there's an issue with the function.

    Please feel free to let me know if you have any further updates, thanks.

    Have a great day and stay safe!

    Best regards
