File save location

Question

FireShot 0.98.91
Windows 8.1 Pro
Chrome Version 54.0.2840.99 m

Up until the latest update when I made a screenshot of a page and click the 'Save as Image' button, the directory to save the file was pre-chosen as the last used one (I make multiple screenshots to store in a given directory and I eventually change it). Now the default directory is always This PC\Downloads\Fire Shot which for me is extremely inconvenient as for every single shot I have to browse through 10 directories to find the correct one.
Is there a way to change this to the previous scenario, I did not find such a setting?

Accepted Answer

Sorry, you have to move your folder into the Downloads folder (or make a symbolic link). There's nothing to do with that - Google is deprecating Flash, so this is the only way to save screenshots now.

Answer

This has never been a problem on Windows + FireShot Pro. You just need to re-enable all hidden dialogs: https://easycaptures.com/fs/uploaded/1652/9498126258.png

Regarding Where to Save file... It's 2025, 04/16/25. Has this been fixed or has anything changed since this 2016 post about where to save file? I have Fireshot pro latest update, and would like to have the option of being asked where to save file when Fireshot Pro captures a page. (Using FF or Chrome or others) & Windows 10 Pro
