I set the extension in Firefox to save to desktop, but it keeps creating an empty folder on my desktop, and named "desktop", and saves there. How can I get it to just save to desktop? Version 0.98.98 OS Win 10 Ent FF 84.0.1 (64-bit) Reproduce: Start browser, open FireShot editor, create a shape, try to save, get newly created empty folder on desktop which keeps being recreated every time I delete it.

Can it have a setting to just remember the last saved-to location?

Is it FireShot Pro or Lite? How many items do you see in the main menu? __________________ FireShot Pro Pro Full Webpage Screenshots will be moving to a subscription model soon! There's a last chance to purchase a Lifetime License and get a 33% discount! - https://getfireshot.com/buy.php

Well I accidentally updated to the pro version which seems free for a limited time, so I have way more options now. I had very few before. So I guess I had the lite version. Now I see saving as pdf isn't going to be in the free version soon

We do not have any plans on removing this functionality from the Free version. __________________ FireShot Pro Pro Full Webpage Screenshots will be moving to a subscription model soon!

So, um, how can I get my captures to just save to desktop? And, is pdf going to remain a free option?

This is the only way because of the browser's limitation. Quote: And, is pdf going to remain a free option?

I'm pretty sure Firefox has that option as well (Options -> search -> downloads). __________________ FireShot Pro Pro Full Webpage Screenshots will be moving to a subscription model soon! There's a last chance to purchase a Lifetime License and get a 33% discount! - https://getfireshot.com/buy.php

Thanks JK, I think I had a brain fart when I answered that. But in any case, I just checked and I don't even need to edit any settings. A few days ago FS updated, and the issue seems to have gone away!
