Disable automatic screenshot Orcad Capture

Hi,

I recently updated Orcad Capture to version 24.1 and noticed that every time I close Capture program, it automatically take a screenshot of my shematic and saves it to the same directory.

How I can disable this function?

Thanks in advance for your answer.

    Ha interesting. I would like to have the opposite.
    I would like to have a possibility through tcl to create a screenshot of the schematic, or even better to export a png file of any schematic I would name

    A CCR is already in place for this.

    However, why this image (preview of schematic) is captured, you can refer following article link to know it:
