Considering #2 is not GW2 itself, I’m assuming some other program is reacting to your print screen key. In this case, simply unbind the print screen key under GW2’s control options. If you’re using an auto batch converter however, you’ll need to instead delete the screenshots after the conversion.

Yea, I don’t get the second location when I take a picture and I just took one to make sure.

If the folder literally just says Guild Wars, do you have Guild Wars 1 and are just confusing the two games? I don’t have Guild Wars 1 so I don’t know where it stores screenshots or in what format they are saved.

You can’t disable the first one, you can only redirect it.
First you have to delete the first directory (move screenshots to new location)

Then you can do something like :

mklink /j “C:\Users\User\Documents\GUILD WARS 2\Screens” “\Program Files (x86)\NCSOFT\Guild Wars”

The question is still : what creates the PNG images ?

EVERY MMO is awesome until it is released then its unfinished. A month after release it just sucks.
Best MMOs are the ones that never make it. Therefore Stargate Online wins.
