    Hey DreClark, I’m assuming that you’re referring back to the steps I included in the first page of this conversation, is that right? Have you had a chance to check back on the tips Rich has included as well? If so, can you let us know of the results? 
     
    Also, can you let me know whether you’re facing this issue across devices or it is specific to one computer? Please include as much detail as possible, so as to try to recreate the behavior on my end. 
     
    Thanks for posting us your inquiry on this discussion & I’ll be awaiting your next post!

    OK I found the problem.  Mojave has a new screenshot capability you get with SHIFT-COMMAND-5.  After typing SHIFT-COMMAND-5, select OPTIONS, then select "save to desktop" and then the Dropbox saving funtionality returned.
