Hi @ocean416 you didn’t specify what settings you are using in “Default location” setting.

If you want to save in a subfolder, you need to do this:

  1. Set “Default location for new attachments” to “In subfolder under current folder”
  2. Under “Subfolder name”, you must specify a name for what the subfolder will be. (If you don’t specify a name, the setting will revert to “Same folder as current file”)

This is what my settings look like in a test, and the file does save correctly under a subfolder.
