  1. Can't Save or Share Certain Screenshots


    Hi there, Xbox Support Forums!

    Problem:

    I cannot save or share certain screenshots and footage that I take in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Some pictures I can save and share, but others I can't.

    I am trying to conduct a review for the game, and this is really setting back my progress quite a bit, as a whole fraction of the footage and screens I capture simply can't be moved or shared.

    Does anyone have any tips on what I can do to solve this issue? Or am I doomed?

    Possible Relations:

    It's worth mentioning that I received a review copy of TW3 before it was released, and had to use a separate early access key to unlock access to the game. Oddly enough when I launch the game from the main startup screen, it tells me "You're too early, please
    wait!" and then gives me the option in checking the Xbox Store to start the game up.

    Strangely enough when I start the game up via my pinned apps, it doesn't give me that message and starts up right away.

    I'm thinking that my ability to share/save screenshots is dependent upon which "version" of the game I launch; for example, if I launch the "version" of the game that tells me I'm too early, I think that it won't save the screens because the system thinks
    I'm still under embargo.

    I've actually tested this theory out and it doesn't hold up. But I thought it was worth mentioning anyway.

    Thanks for your time!

    :)

    Xbox One Screenshots won't share or save.

    Same here. I have Xbox gold but some of my videos and screenshots won't save. If I can't save, I can't share.

    Can't Save or Share Certain Screenshots

    Some games do have limits as to what screenshots or footage that can be recorded or shared, as specified by the developer. This is to prevent some spoilers from being posted.

    Upload app "capture not saved" error

    Same issue. Wanted to share character screenshots of my Neverwinter toons and can't save or transfer them. Seems like a no brainer to build in an easy option to save, transfer, or share. I can pull images from a thumbdrive, but I can't save to one? And there
    seems to be no option to access Upload on a PC.

    Upload Studio clips will not share

    It won't allow me to share my screenshots either. Everytime I attempt to save a screenshot it won't save.

    Sharing/Screenshots

    Hello nnooggoodd,

    To take a Screenshot:

    1. While in game double tap the Xbox Button

    2. When the home screen appears press Y

    Note: if you do not get the option to take a screenshot after double tapping the xbox button you may need to reinstall Game DVR and/or your profile.

    To save a Screenshot:

    1. Open the Game DVR app

    2. With the screenshot you with to save/share press the menu button and select save/share from the menu

    Note: After taking a screenshot there is a delay before the screenshot can be saved or shared. During this time you will not see these options available.
