Screenshot is gone on my MacBook

The screenshot function has stopped working. When I take a screenshot, the image will not lie on the desktop. It settles nowhere. I'm searching for the picture but it's not there. I have checked the settings on the keyboard and restored the default settings on the screenshot, but it still does not work. Any advice on what can be done?

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.2
