Oscar screenshot problems

[lacro]

I am new to PAP therapy, and using Oscar. I have successfully accessed my data in Oscar, and attempted to do the F12 screenshot, but I can't find the location in my documents of the screenshot so I can upload to forum. I am not real computer savvy but can follow instructions. OS: Windows 10 Home

Look in documents then click Oscar then screenshots

also, the notification from oscar in the windows notification area includes the path to where screenshots are stored.

Oscar doesn't appear in Documents or windows notification area??

[sheepless]

did you try f12 again? maybe the screenshot failed so nothing to find?

The normal location for screenshots is


Documents\OSCAR_Data\Screenshots

I tried multiple time with F12 - nothing shows in Documents. Also, I tried the normal path for Oscar screen shots, but doesn't exist. Is that path automatically created in Documents when F12 is pressed while in Oscar?

have you searched for oscar or oscar_data folders? I believe the default location is in documents but you may have it set up differently.

after f12, you should see a popup reporting the screenshot, which should then show up in windows notifications.

On some computers the function keys may serve double-duty as volume buttons, airplane mode etc. The F1 to F12 keys may require that you also push a function (fn) key, usually next to the ctl button on the lower left of the keyboard. I have to do that with my HP laptop.

I would prefer if the software notified of a screenshot being saved, but it just shows up in my screenshots folder in Oscar. I usually give any screenshot a more meaningful name.

my oscar screenshots are notified in windows. notifications can be turned on or off for each application.
