Hey guys I've sorted it I think.....The problem was it wasn't allowing me to run as admin for some reason so I uninstalled and this time installed version 3.1. Now as you know, usually you would just right click on the program and select run as admin, but the problem was , it didn't give me that option in the menu tab...So I went into the windows tab on desk top, found sharp cap there, right clicked on it....Eureka run as admin popped up....Problem solved.....Told you I wasn't very computer savvy lol. Thanks a million guys for responding to this now simply solved problem.

Thanks buddy I will have a look, I have a desk top folder but not checked the spelling, so I'll check that out.

I have got a folder on desk top but I not sure if I've tried the 3 dot option , I'll have a look pal.

Yes to all but one, I don't use tool to browse because I don't really know what that is, like I say I am a total novice to this and as you can see not very computer savvy. Strange thing is when I try sharpcap on my even older laptop it works fine and will capture...The problem is my spare laptop is SLOW and I mean slow to the point of being almost unusable... It must be something with this laptop I'm using BTW, it's a old 32bit hp running windows 10.

Hey Scotty, does this help?

Hey Brown Dwarf, I've tried that and still the same message pops up.

Hello folks, new member here. I had a strange pop-up appear on sharpcap that I have no idea what it means. Just to let you know I am a total novice at astrophotography I've been a visual astronomer for over 30 years and I am just dipping my toes into this side of the hobby. This message pops up on every capture function on Sharpcap everything else works fine. I just can't seem to find this missing folder it keeps telling me about. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling different versions and I still get the same thing happen, I can't find anything in the options to help me. So as you can see I am at a total loss of what to do. If any of you know what this problem is any help will be massively appreciated. Thanks guys.
