Find the game's main folder as follows:


Windows explorer will open the game's main folder. Mine (yours should be a little bit different) is:
F:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\WayOfTheHunter\

Now, navigate to the following sub-directories:

\WayOfTheHunter\Saved\Screenshots\Windows\

The full path on my PC (yours should be a little bit different) is:

F:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\WayOfTheHunter\WayOfTheHunter\Saved\Screenshots\Windows

The files are there.

=============
Now, you may wonder why these files are so large. It's because they're saved in the Portable Network Graphics (.PNG) format, which is a format that uses lossless compression, which results in larger file size. More information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PNG
I like this format, but not for screenshots of games (unless I'm doing very precise tests for visual comparison (by the way, what's allowed on Steam guides is files that are less than 2 MB*); but in these situations I'd use Windows' clipboard and save my PNG files manually). To give you an idea of the space cost, I've piled up 700+ MB of just 56 screenshots there (I've got 130 hours in the game, playing it since June 2023). Not something that I'd like to be present on my NVMe M2 SSD.

I hope you may find this information useful.
