Screenshot disappears on iMac 2020 running Catalina

Have options set for "desktop", but screenshot disappear after appearing on desktop as they save.

Files not hidden. I can only save them if I immediately save to photos.

Thanks, I wouldn't have even known it would affect the functionality, or have anything to do with it...

BTW, it was even odder that I could save it into my documents folder, but if I dragged it out of there onto my desktop, it disappeared completely with a resounding "clunk". I thought it was going into the trash, but nothing in there.


Are all these screenshots existing somewhere else? - I'm thinking wormhole to parallel universe.
