The Steam App provides an integrated system that organizes and allows easy access to your captured in-game moments.

Open Steam:

Access screenshots:
- Click on the desired screenshot.
- Click the "Show on Disk" button to open the file explorer in the directory where the screenshot is stored.

To locate Steam screenshots via the file system, you can navigate to the Steam folder where the screenshots are stored.

Open the Steam directory:
- Finding and opening Steam's installation directory depends on the operating system you're using:
  - On Windows, the default is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam".
  - On a Mac, the default is "Users/[your-mac-username]/Library/Application Support/Steam".
  - On a Linux system, the default is" ~/.local/share/Steam".
- If you have changed the default installation directory or customized your Steam settings, you may need to adjust the path accordingly.
Navigate to the Screenshots Folder:
- Within the Steam installation directory, look for a folder named ‘userdata’. The exact path might vary based on your Steam account ID. Typically, it is found in a structure like:
  ‘userdata\[your-steam-ID]\760\remote\[app-ID]\screenshots’.
- The [your-steam-ID] part will be a numerical value unique to your Steam account.
- The [app-ID] is the application ID of the game for which you want to access screenshots. Each game on Steam has a unique ID.
Access screenshots:
- Inside the ‘screenshots’ folder, you should see subfolders named with numbers, each corresponding to a different game.
- Locate the folder for the specific game you're interested in.
- Inside the game's folder, you should see a list of all the screenshots for that game.
