Add a Screenshot Button to Recordings

Currently, if you want to be able to take a screenshot of something within the recording, you have to run the video, wait for the overlay to disappear, and take a print screen of what you want. Though it's still more useful than trying to take the "right' screenshot at the right time in-game without a chance for a do-over, it still requires you to do it whilst the video is playing. As a person who takes a lot of screenshots, I was excited for this as a feature as it would give me the opportunity to also take those easy-to-miss screenshots that would otherwise take several tries, reloads, or require me to give up entirely if not done properly!

Are those saved elsewhere than in the folder of the game?

Sure, it says take a screenshot, but it doesn't save it anywhere, does it?

I paused the clip, right clicked and clicked save screenshot, but there's no sound and I wonder where it's saved?

It is in screenshots and recordings of game. You can also hover the screenshot icon and open the screenshot from there.
