    Hi @even1, we've released a new update for Parallels Toolbox 1.7.0 (1026). Added support for custom screenshot storing locations (if changed via Terminal). Please keep us posted the results.

    I have the same question, what command(s) are needed to alter the location?

    Hello,
    If you're using 2.0 version of Parallels Toolbox then open Parallels Toolbox menu (open Parallels Toolbox window --> click on 'gear' button in the title) and choose 'Preferences...'. You can choose default location for screenshot tools in 'Location' tab.
