For a few days now I've been experiencing problems taking screenshots using my Steamdeck, I press the Steam Button + R1, it makes the sound of when you take the screenshot, but when I go to the Gallery it's empty

This is what happens to me when I try to open a screenshot from the game section

Same problem on KDE neon. I can't open and share my screenshots, but can download them. In the settings, I specified a folder for saving screenshots; they appear there, but not all of them.

If you're using EmuDeck and added games via Steam ROM Manager, the issue might be related to that. In my case, it was. Try deleting the user folder located at /steam/userdata/numbers (but make sure to keep a backup copy first).

Nothing extracted yet.
