Hello All,
I am editing a show using the latest ETC/EOS family offline software. I've created the file, am editing and I save. I see the file is saved to: C:\Program Files (x86)\ETC\Eos\ShowArchive\showtitle
Now, when I explore to that folder, it is not there. I have a student working on a different show offline and is having the same problem.
Any suggestions?!
Thanks!

just as a quick workaround: insert a USB-drive and try saving there. does this work? and maybe also try to Run as Admin (right-click on the Icon and then choose Run as Admin).
Thanks for the replies! Yes, I can get it with a thumb drive, but I am just nerdy enough to want to figure this out! I have tried the "running as admin" route. Usually once I start editing a show and shut down offline, then next time I start the show is there. When I opened as an admin, I started off with a clean show and then REALLY couldn't find the file...so that's a no go. I mean the ShowArchive folder is NOT showing up in my PC. I have "Show all folders and files" selected in the folder properties...
Weird.
Windows 7 and newer really dislike applications saving files in the "Program Files" or "Program Files (x86)" trees. "Run as Admin" is a bad hack at getting around the security issue. A better solution is to change your location to a directory like "C:\Users\Public\ETC\ShowArchive". YMMV
In the offline settings, would it be possible to put a new button next to the ShowArchive path, "Select new ShowArchive Directory" Right now you have to type it in...plenty of room for errors!
