F8 screenshot cannot be saved
Check the save location and message when a screenshot is not created.
Sources checked: · SA-MP 0.3.DL-R1
What could cause it?
A write block or full storage may be involved; changing permissions on an entire folder is unnecessary.
Try these steps in order
- Press F8 and record the message; check whether your laptop requires Fn for that key.
- Check Documents / GTA San Andreas User Files / SAMP / screens and free disk space. Documents may have been redirected elsewhere.
- If Windows Security reports a write block at the same time, send its details to support.
- Use Windows Snipping Tool to capture only the error window if needed, hiding personal information.
Check the result
Check the new image’s file date. Do not give everyone write access to system folders.
