    Xbox captures default folder


    I have chosen OneDrive as the default folder for Xbox captures and now I can't change it although the default video folder isn’t OneDrive anymore. I tried resetting the app, but nothing happened. Is there any way to change it?

    :)

  2. Unable to "move" Captures folder for Xbox Bar Captures

    Thanks for the reply!

    I am unable to follow those steps. As I mentioned, there is no "Captures" folder. It points directly to the temp folder, and there is no Captures folder for me to edit. When I go into the properties on the temp folder, I have no "location" tab, so nothing can be changed.

    If you don't have one- create one.

    I suggest you create a captures folder in Videos, and use the dialogue to point to it.

    This solution is given in the tutorial in the first link of my first post : here it is quoted for you:

    Please re-read that tutorial.
