Easy Ways On How to Automatically Save Screenshots to OneDrive.

There is a new feature in OneDrive which allows you to automatically save screenshots to your local OneDrive folder. This was discovered a few weeks ago, but it wasn't really working at that time. But now it appears that the service is up and working. Enabling this setting will allow the app to automatically save the screenshot to a special folder in the local drive. It's free service and you'll get couple of storage space for free, which you can extend with further subscription [according to your requirement].
Pressing the appropriate keyboard shortcuts for screen capture will trigger OneDrive to save the captured screen to your cloud storage. You can capture the screenshot of full screen by pressing Print Screen button, or press Alt + Print Screen button at the same time to take the screenshot of the current window only.

All the pictures will be saved in Users > OneDrive > Pictures > Screenshots folder. You can share these photos to anyone, right click on the image and select "share a OneDrive link". Please note that anyone with the link will be able to view and download the file.
