Something is creating a conflict with the overlay, and that's why you can't use F12 for screenshots.

#Where are my steam screenshots install#

If it doesn't work in any game, then you may need to perform a clean install of STEAM. One basic troubleshooting issue you didn't cover is there any game where the F12 screenshot function works or is it broken for all the games you own? If it works in some games, and not others, try repairing the games where it doesn't work, and if that doesn't fix the issue you may need to uninstall and reinstall those games. It's also possible that there is some other program installed on your computer that is causing a conflict, and that's an issue that no one can diagnose for you.

I can't say it will work for you, but there are fixes that people have found that have nothing to do with the overlay not being enabled. Because when I Google 'STEAM screenshot not working' the first result I get is thisВ where several people confirm a fix working after modifying one of the core STEAM files. Google the problem was the first thing I did. Most people forgot to turn on Steam overlay in game or forgot to turn on screenshots or had it remapped to a different button. STEAM is a fickle beast, so sometimes you may have to attempt multiple fixes before finding the one that corrects your specific problem. But don't worry about system resources, they use a whopping 2MB of system RAM.ДЄs far as your issue with STEAM, I strongly suggest you perform a Google search and look at all the fixes that other people have posted. You don't have to start them every time you want to play a game as they run all the time. EVGA Precision is another option as well, they are pretty much the exact same program with a different skin, but EVGA lacks the video recording and in game overlay for 64-bit games. Even if you don't own a MSI brand card, you can still use it to perform basic overclocking of your GPU. You can also use it to set custom fan profiles, take screenshots and record video, again all 100% for free. It's built in RivaTuner support allows you to monitor your FPS, and just about any aspect of your GPU performance you could want, in real time. No matter what brand of GPU you have, you can use MSI Afterburner 100% for free. That program seriously needs to die a million deaths already. First, never, ever, ever, ever, ever use FRAPS.
