THANK YOU SIR ! you saved me from not turning my desktop into a mess

[@carlosmquerales]

For High Sierra or earlier type this cmd in terminal:
defaults write com.apple.screencapture location "drag your screenshot folder to terminal, without the quotes"

Somehow I change my save location when doing some screen recordings. I knew there was an easy solution, however most of what I found when searching were people recommending terminal commands to change location. Social Nope fix me up with "Shift+Command+5" ! Easy Peezy! Thank you, Thank you!
