I don't know where to post this, but I am having a problem when I create a screenshot, it doesn't go into my Guild Wars folder. I do have a couple that have went there but that was about a year ago.

Hmmm, when you take a screenshot it should say where the photo is stored on your computer in your chat log. Mabey it changed drives or something? You could try searching for the photo you just took on your computer mabey?

It goes into your documents/guild wars folder, not your program files/guild wars folder.

mine went to c:\program files\guildwars\screens actually. I do have one in my documents as well but that one contains screens from an older installment of windows. I'm not sure but I think I started playing under windows XP and now I'm using windows 7. So best is to check both locations.

If you are now using Windows 7 you can make your screen shots go into the program files folder location again, by running the shortcut icon or GW.exe in Windows XP Compatibility Mode. This is done by right clicking the icon, then click Properties, then on the Compatibility tab. Just check mark on "Run this program in..." ect.

I do this because having all the Guild Wars stuff (Screens, Builds, Data) transferable with one click makes it so much easier. Always loved that about Guild Wars, can walk around with the game on a USB flash drive and play on any computer you want within seconds.
