Where are screenshots saved?

Lelroni · #1 08-09-2010, 06:35 PM

As title says, where are they located? I never kept my old screenshots from my computer I played EQ back on in the day [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] so I would like to keep these [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]. In game I press " - " (num pad) and it says "Taking screenshot" (or whatever the generic reply is when pressing screenshot button), however I cannot find them in my "C:\Program Files\Sony\EverQuest\Screenshots" I do have a couple screenshots in there, but they are from like 2 months ago when I first started out.

Any and all help is appreciated, thanks [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

On my Win 7 machine:

C: > User > User_name > AppData > Local > VirtualStore > Program Files (x86) > Sony > Everquest > Screenshots

Note that AppData is a hidden folder; so need to have hidden folders on. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

That did it Deric, thanks. Such a pain to get to though!

This path exists if you install the game on Win 7 (maybe Vista) without running it as admin (UAC). If you do then it's all in one location like normal.

Any idea for windows 8 where the files would go?

It would be similar for Win8. The VirtualStore directory is where my Win8 machine sticks things that don't have the right permissions.

Now all of you people take your EQ folders and remove them out of your program files folder so your screenshots actually goto the right spot. Plus it will save you other headaches along the way.
