No avi file
For some reason, when I record a video and save it then try to find the file it's not there at all. I'm using windows vista. Can anyone help?
Comments
Are you seeing any errors?
Are you sure you are looking in the right place?
Do you have permission to save the file where you want to?
Please provide more information to get relevant help.
C:\Users\[Your Profile Name]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Camstudio.
The AppData directory is normally hidden by default in Vista so to make it visible, you go to:
Start > Control Panel > Folder Options > select the 'View' tab >
then check the "show hidden files and folders" radio button.
Be careful, hidden files can't be moved/deleted by accident.
There's also a Compatibility Files button in the CamStudio installation folder in Program Files - click that and you should see the AVIs.
Or alternatively, in: Options > Program Options > Name of AVI
Change it to "Ask for file name" and save the AVI somewhere else.
HTH
Cheers
