Randomly last week, my computer started doing Floating Thumbnails every time I take a screen capture. I keep turning it off and it keeps coming back. I'm doing Cmd-Shift_5, toggle it to off, then 5 minutes later is back on. How do I get my selection to "stick?" I've restarted my computer twice. I'm on Monterey 12.6.7. Thanks!

If I understand correctly, the problem is that "Show Floating Thumbnail" setting is not sticking as you made it.
This solution ought to work:
1) In Terminal, paste the following line and press enter:
defaults delete com.apple.screencapture
2) Log out and back in (or restart your mac)
3) Adjust the settings (they will have reverted to their defaults), and if they stick
Please do something about this. It's driving me insane, it's been going on for weeks now.
