How can I keep the screenshot in the clipboard as an image, not a shared link?

Hello, how can I reset Dropbox so that it still saves screenshots to the correct folder, but also keeps the image on the clipboard?

 So it works like it did recently?

 Because I don't need the Dropbox link, I want to continue working with the image.

    Hi Micuir, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

    Could you confirm what OS you're running, and the version of the Dropbox desktop application on your device?

    This will help me to assist further!
