EssexExile has got it correct for Windows 10.
Also, no need to create 'Screenshots' folder, the folder is automatically created the first time you use Win + PrntScrn, it will save as *.png.
Another thing, if you move the Screenshots folder to a completely different location, Windows 10 will still find it.

On a PC, press PrtSc then open a new Word or Paint file and press paste or right click paste.0
