is there is way i change default saving mechanism as .jpeg?
I checked the Snipping tool (based on SnagIt) and SnagIt (which I have and use) and there is not any way to set default. Just the last extension used

what tool are you using to create your screenshots?
How are you creating the screenshots? PrintScreen/Alt+PrintScreen key? Snipping Tool? Third-party app like Greenshot?

Edit: Sorry, Paul, had a tab open with the question, and saw your comment when I hit Submit. Your post is spot-on!

For Microsoft Snipping Tool, it will remember what you file format used last time.  if it was JPEG, by default, it will be automatically changed to JPEG next time. see the screenshot.
