Where is Snipping Tool unsaved files located

Hi Bob, I was recording my screen using the snipping tool in windows 11 but after recording I forgot to save that recording and shutdown my pc. How can I get that screen recording?

by design, unsaved Snipping Tool files are saved in this path:
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.ScreenSketch_8wekyb3d8bbwe\TempState

1. Press Windows + R keys to open Run.


2. Type the path %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.ScreenSketch_8wekyb3d8bbwe\TempState


3. Inside the Recordings folder will be the videos.

Please view this step by step video:
