Saving file to folder

[Maff]

When save -as is opened the folder that the current file is from does not
open. It opens the last folder that I saved an item to. Any ideas how to
change. It always worked before, something changed can't find the correction

That's completely normal for SAVE AS. To save to the original folder
just use SAVE.

If you want to reset the Save-as location, just delete this registry key:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComDlg32\OpenSaveMRU]


I created this reg file to run at start-up that sets my own locations for
Save-as. It can be complicated to create, but is worth it. This is it:

That would depend on the application. Some have options you can set
for this kind of thing, some don't.

Aha...I see Murphy is active in this newsgroup as well.

Some background: I am the real Leonard Grey. The rude post copied below
was not created by me. It was created by a disturbed individual named
Murphy.

Murphy is a very angry person, and he is apparently suffering side
effects from taking Rimonabant (brand name: Zimultri, produced by
Sanofi-Adventis.) . Rimonabant is an anti-obesity drug that has been
documented by the United States FDA to cause severe depression.

Murphy's game is to try to impersonate people in these newsgroups, and
then make rude and even revolting posts in their names. He's done it to
nass, he's done it to me, and to others. Unfortunately, there's nothing
anyone can do about it, AFAIK.

It's not hard to tell the difference between posts made me - the real
me - and Murphy's impersonation.

I do not normally post to this newsgroup, and I won't post to this
thread again, so any other posts in this thread that have my name on
them are coming from Murphy.

To the OP and all others who have genuinely tried to help: I'm sorry
this mess has gotten in the way of your getting the answer you need.
