The open-world of Teyvat is as big as it is gorgeous, which means you’re probably going to spend a fair bit of time taking pictures of your adventure along the way. But for those playing on PC, actually finding the screenshot folder location for Genshin Impact can be a bit of a challenge. Luckily, we’re here to put you on the right (file) path.
Where the Screenshot Folder Location Is in Genshin Impact
Like many modern video games, Genshin Impact has a photo mode that allows players to take pictures and edit them with different effects. As we’ve explained in our dedicated photo mode guide, accessing the mode is done from the main menu and so if you’re wondering how to see Genshin screenshots then here’s what you need to know.
After you’ve snapped a picture, you can obviously just press “Print Screen” on your keyboard to take a picture. But there’s also a dedicated “Take Photo” button that saves them to a dedicated folder on your PC.
So where on earth is that folder? Well, we’ve done a bit of digging in the game’s File and discovered their whereabouts. Here’s the file path, which you should be able to just copy into explorer and locate:
C:\Program Files\Genshin Impact\Genshin Impact Game\ScreenShot
Note that the above will only work if you have installed the game to your C drive. If you have multiple HDDs and you know that Genshin Impact is installed on, say, the D drive, then simply swap out the letters in file path listed above.
How to Screenshot
Taking a screenshot in Genshin Impact is pretty straightforward as there is a dedicated section for it in the options menu. Simply open up the main menu by hitting the Escape button on your keyboard, then cycle to the ‘Take Photo’ button at the top, and press enter to select the camera mode. You can then choose various options to customize and enhance your image before snapping the image.
Again, if you don’t want to go through this process you can always take screenshots on PC by pressing the PrintScreen button on your keyboard, which copies the image to your clipboard and can then be pasted into paint.
And that’s everything you should need to know about where the screenshot location is in Genshin Impact. For more useful tips and guides on the game, be sure to check out Twinfinite’s wiki.
