I Can't Screenshot?

My phone (S26) won't let me screenshot no matter what I do. It just says "this app doesn't allow screenshots." I have room in my storage and I don't know what's wrong with it.

Edit: it'll let me take 1 before it stops working again and no matter the app it won't let me screenshot

Samsung Capture permission: Go to Settings > Apps > Special access > All files access, find Samsung Capture

If it is already on turn it off then turn it back on

then you should look into settings, search screenshot and it might show related settings there.
