    Where Does Win 10 Save Cam Shots By Default?


    Why does Win 10 have to make things so freakin' complicated?

    For YEARS it has saved all pics in the Pictures Library, why all of a sudden change that?

    And what did it change to?

    And WHY can't I find out where they're saved?

    And FINALLY, why doesn't the Win 10 Cam app let me determine where to save pics?

    *Mad*Mad*Mad

    Unable to open/see images on PC that are captured by Nokia lumia 520 smart cam

    You can't. That file is used with the program itself where you can then save Best Shot etc. As far as I know, it is not a viewable file.

    You are correct about that Sven. The nar file is the file created by smart cam. When a user selects the Best Shot etc., then it saves that shot in the Camera roll as a jpeg file.
