    Camera app isn't saving to C: drive


    I'm trying to use the camera app on windows 10 to take photos through a webcam.

    The app originally worked fine, however, now the app won't save photos (or videos) to the C: drive but will save to other drives (recovery and USB etc.) when I adjust the drive to which photos and videos from the app save to in settings.

    Even when photos are set to save to the C: drive they will either save in recovery or to an external drive.

    Is there a solution to this problem?

    :)
     

  2. Printer isn´t working after latest update.

    After the latest update from Windows, my Canon Pixma ip6600 printer isnt working. In Device Manager it shows up as working properly but when I go to print it isn´t listed as an option in any programs. Troubleshoot suggests it´s a USB 2 printer on a USB
    3 port and that that´s the problem but that cant be since it worked fine before the update. I´ve tried to uninstall and plug it back in but that doesn´t work either.

    • Now click on Storage and select a drive on
