When I take a screen shot - Command+Shift+4 - it opens Apple Mail and inserts the image in one message, while opening numerous pages of other blank email? This just started and continues with the other two types of three key screen shots
iMac, OS X 10.11
Didn't work. Called Apple for help, got great response. In the end I was told to go to Utilities, select Screenshot and look for where it was sent. Turns out Mail was selected which I then changed to Desktop.
Thought you'd like to know.

Start with this of M1 or M2 Mac...
Start up a Mac with Apple silicon in safe mode
On your Mac, choose Apple menu > Shut Down.
After your Mac shuts down, wait 10 seconds.
Press and hold the power button on your Mac until the startup options window appears showing available startup disks and Options.
Select a startup disk.
Press and hold the Shift key, click Continue in Safe Mode, then release the Shift key.
To leave safe mode, restart your Mac normally, without pressing and holding any keys during startup.
Start with this if IntelMac...
Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at startup), does the problem occur in Safe Mode? Could take 10 minutes or more.
Safe mode attempts to repair Disks & clears lots of caches & loads safe Drivers, & prevents loading of 3rd party extensions, so if Safe Mode works try again in regular boot.
Sadly I'm not very experienced at this level:
What's M1 or M2?
What's Apple silicon?
I have an iMAC that I bought from Apple about 5 years ago, so I assume it's not an IntelMac.
You have an Intel iMac if it is 5 years old.
Great that it is resolved, but what is 'Utilities ... Screenshot'?
In Applications folder open the Utilities folder, there you'll find Screenshot.app
Thank you: I had looked in Launchpad and mistakenly searched for Utilities. I should have looked in Launchpad > Other.
It is where you said.
Good to hear my friend, take care. :)
