Do GW2 take screenshot while you’re in game without you actually taking the screenshot yourself? My husband was able to pull up a screenshot of me playing in game, one that I did not take. He muttered something about when you close the game or something it takes a screenshot. 5 hours later he was able to pull it up a screenshot as if I had taken one from my computer. Is this something Guild War2 does or is this something my computer does? I know on our lap top Temp files will randomly take screenshot of whatevers on the screen. I just don’t know how he pulled a screenshot of me in game that I had never even taken.

Any ideas?

No, the game doesn’t take screenshots on it’s own or when you close the game.

“I know on our lap top Temp files will randomly take screenshot of whatevers on the screen.”

That’s quite strange and it’s not normal behavior. You may have a keylogger or some other piece of software that’s doing this. Windows doesn’t do this by itself.

Maybe, while you do your stuff you accidentally hit the screenshot button once in a while? which may also be assigned to a non standard button in your setup?
