FSX - Where are the screenshots on XP? - Please, someone!

Featured Replies

Hi chaps, an old question, but still relevant:Please could someone tell me where the screenshots get stored on XP? I did have this figured out once, but came back to FSX after a gap and can't find them anywhere, no matter how hard I try.Some helpful fellows have come back withFor WinXP, this is the folder path...x:\Documents and Settings\UserName\My Documents\My Pictures\Flight Simulator X Files But they ain't there! I searched my C drive (the only one I've got) for all .BMP files, and sorted by date created most recently. They're not there. I've had this problem before (there are loads of posts on this when you do an internet search, but no-one ever has an answer), can anyone remember what the answer was? Any advice chaps?Many thanks, Phil, UK.

Have you looked at the Photos tab of the Pilot Records screen?If you have any they should show up there.regards,JoePS. The Learning Center states the photos are stored in "By default, your photos are stored in the C:Documents and Settingsyour nameMy DocumentsMy PicturesFlight Simulator Files folder."

Many thanks, Joe. That's the problem, they are there in FSX Photos tab, but they are not in C:Documents and Settingsyour nameMy DocumentsMy PicturesFlight Simulator Files folder. They are visible in FSX Pilot Records Photos, but I can't find them anywhere in Windows Explorer. Nothing to do with shutting down FSX or anything, if I start it up again they're still there in FSX, but just not visible anywhere outside FSX. As I said, I did figure this one out years ago, but for the life of me can't remember the answer! You will be helping quite a few guys if you can come up with answer!!! Thanks, Phil (UK).

A slight path correction.C:\Documents and Settings\your name\My Documents\My Pictures\Flight Simulator Files...should be....C:\Documents and Settings\your name\My Documents\My Pictures\Flight Simulator X FilesThis is where they go on my XP machine when using the "V" key to take the shots.Are you using another external screenshot program?When looking at the Photos tab of the Pilot Records, what happens if you click on the "Manage" button?regards,Joe
