C:\Users\<Username>\Docume

I opened Snagit and captured a bit here. As I recalled, it does not attempt to make a name in Snagit Editor until I do a Save As. Then it uses a time stamp as the date. See below. I think the use of a time stamp as the filename is at the bottom of why it gets renamed (the time changes).

I instinctively give my files real names (I have a couple of hundred such files for use here at E-E). Time stamps would quickly be hard to use. Now when I save as a real name, it saves always in Documents\Snagit, never in the temp folder. I looked here (C:\Users\thinkpads_user\A
When I delete my real files, a restore from the recycle bin will always bring them back to Documents\Snagit with the same name. I think it is the temporary files you are deleting getting a new name.
