Screenshots changed in High Sierra

Just installed High Sierra. Took a screenshot and it went to my desktop instead of to my Screenshots folder. It also labeled the file as "Screen Shot" instead of "Screenshot"?

How do I change this back to the default file location and the default file name?

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch,Early 2015), macOS High Sierra (10.13.1)

Screen shots have been saved to the desktop by default at least as far back as El Capitan. If you want to change the default refer to this article: https://mac-how-to.gadgethacks.com/how-to/change-default-save-location-screensho ts-mac-os-x-for-cleaner-desktop-0160154/
