Unable to take screenshot in MacBook using shortcut shift+command+3/4 On macOS I type the key combinations: shift+command+3/4


While taking the screenshot sound is audible but the screenshot is not getting saved in desktop or anywhere. I have searched in spotlight and in finder as well.
Also checked the shortcuts in keyboard option; all are checked.


How can I look at where the system stores the actual screen shot location and validate / reset that it's saving files to a writeable location?
If the default location for saving screenshots has been changed, then this Terminal command will show you the changed location:

defaults read com.apple.screencapture location


If you get a message that the default pair does not exist, then the location has not been changed, and should be the Desktop. 

If you want to restore it to the default, enter:

defaults delete com.apple.screencapture location
