I need help finding the file path for the folder that I set up to receive scanned documents.

based on personal experience to find the file path for your scanned documents folder on Windows 10, follow these steps:

- Open File Explorer.

- Navigate to the folder you set up to receive scanned documents.

- Right-click on the folder.

- Select "Properties" from the context menu.

- In the Properties window, you should see the "General" tab. The Location field will display the file path.

- If you encounter an error, double-check that you have the correct folder and ensure there are no typos in the path you're using.

If the issue continue, let me know the specific error message you're receiving
so i can assist further.

You should manually look for it. Go to your library and look for documents and look in the documents folder for a subfolder called "Scanned Documents."

Or

Libraries (You named this during PC setup)/Documents/Scanned Documents >

Occasionally, some printer driver software puts in the "Pictures" under a "Scanned Documents" subfolder.

If you manually changed it you have to physically find where you put by looking in each folder in your library (Documents, Downloads, Pictures, Videos, Desktop, etc).

None of this really matters because each time you do a scan you have a scan dialogue box that pops up and shows you the scan and you have the change to "save as" and delineate the file path. This is the correct way to do it -- not using a default scan location which is meant to be temporary anyway just like the downloads folder is meant to be temporary.

try using a simpler path, like "C:\Documents\Scanned".
