Hey, folks!
I was wondering if you'd be able to help me.
I've taken quite a few screenshots in the Sims 4, but only half of them are appearing in my Screenshots folder (in the My Documents directory). I've tracked the rest of them down to appearing on my "memories timeline" in the game.
Where might I find the rest of my screenshots from the "memories timeline"? Are they stored online, or on my PC in some files that I can't find?
Thank you to anyone who can help me.

Is there anyone else that can help me?

Enjoy!
My experience is that if you make a screenshot a "memory" it doesn't stay in Screenshots at all, since game launch. If I think I'm going to want the screenshot, I don't make it a memory.

Good to know, I think that's what I'll start doing too. Thanks :)
Nobody's found where "memory" screenshots end up - they must be incorporated into the Save file. If you don't make them a "memory", they'll be in Screenshots.
Guys, this thread is nearly one year old. I left it up to be informative, but it'd be a good idea to stop bumping it.
You're kidding! And I've been deleting that folder every time I quit the game. Not that I have been saving my screenshots as memories. I'm just referring to the folder itself. Thanks @GoldQueen for making us aware of this!

Hello.
Try having your sim travel to another lot, then see if the photo appears then. If it is not appearing in game, exit the game and see if the photo is in your screenshots folder in the documents -electronic arts -sims 4 folder.
If the photo isn't there, try testing by taking another screenshot and see if the photo appears.

Hello @cookieminou
Try altering the graphics settings and see if that helps.
Try changing to full screen or windowed full screen and see if that helps.
If you are are playing on a laptop, and your laptop can handle it, try turning off laptop mode. It may though cause lagging issues.
Check that your graphics drivers are up to date.

Apart from what Rosemow said, could you also post a screenshot as an example? Upload it to Imgur and paste the URL here.
When I take a screenshot it appears in Screenshot Capture Manager but they never appear in the EA folder like they used to do. I have this issue since when I installed Cats and Dogs!!
Hello @SaraCluesoe
Do you use One Drive? If you do it could be causing this issue, Try seeing if there is a screenshots folder in One Drive . The game may be using that screenshot foldrf instead. One Drive can cause issues, It would be best to unsync One Drive and Sims 4.
This link explains how to do that
