I came here for the same reason. Stupid OneDrive has hijacked my screenshots, which have been uploading to Dropbox for years. I've disabled OneDrive completely, but Dropbox is still not saving the screenshots. and yes the option is ticked in the Dropbox settings. It's very frustrating!

Hi funkyblue, I'd be happy to help! 

 

You mentioned that your screenshots are no longer being saved to Dropbox automatically. Can you clarify the version of the app, that you're using on your end? 

 

You can find the version by locating your Dropbox icon on the menu or task bar, next to your WiFi and hovering your mouse there. 

 

If I were you, I'd also untick the setting, then check it again, can you give it a go? 

 

Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!
