did you use these steps? (as suggested by dialabrain)

you can use the keyboard shortcut "shift-command-5" to bring up the recording controls. then choose "options".

and then, in those options, check the "save to" location to see where the recording went.

How do I check that the desktop is still set in Options? Just used your method of screen shot, and nothing appeared on my desktop.
