Storage Location#

Right-click the Greenshot icon in the taskbar → Preferences → Output

Check as needed:

• Open in image editor — opens the screenshot in Greenshot’s editor immediately (useful if you annotate screenshots frequently)
• Copy to clipboard — copies the screenshot to the clipboard instantly
