Screenshot disappears on iMac running Catalina

Whenever I take a screenshot, the photo appears on my desktop for a few moments, then it evaporates. I can't find it anywhere. Anyone else had this problem?

Check System Preferences > Apple ID > iCloud > iCloud Drive: Options… Is Desktop & Documents Folders enabled? If so, the screenshots would be moved to the Desktop in your iCloud Drive. If you are running Dropbox, they could be being moved to your Dropbox folder. Other than those options, I don't know.
