My screenshot hot key recently started misbehaving. I have "Take ScreenShot" mapped to PrintScreen but I noticed yesterday screenshots weren't being saved to my ..\screenshots folder. Instead they were only saved to RAM and I could paste into an image editor (Paint or GIMP).
If I use Shift+PrintScreen (with mapping still just PrintScreen) the screenshot is created in the right folder. If I map a different key (for instance "U") the screenshot is also created properly.
My confUser.ini has:
[HotKey BOB]
PrintScreen=ScreenShot
The PrintScreen key properly captures screenshots in IL2 1946, BoX, Rise of Flight and DCS, though in the case of the last three the key is SysRq.
It seems Windows is overriding my game setting for PrintScreen in this game.
I've tested this on a second computer and PrintScreen is correctly capturing screenshots.
