Cannot Create Custom Exports in FT3

DJLProjects

Attached the error I am receiving when I try to create, edit, rename, or duplicate any export options in FT3. Any advice on how to fix this?

It says "please ensure it is a valid file name".

I'm guessing a reinstall is in order, or maybe a newer version is out now? I'm using 3.0.20.

Anyone experience this error before?

Turns out there is a v3.0.21. Installing that has fixed the issue so far.

Windows doesn't like anything writing to Program files folder. Save to elsewhere, like your documents folder.

I cannot change where FT3 saves the files though. And the update, only fixed this for a single use. Broken again.

You'll need to start FT3 as Administrator. Right-click the shortcut button, choose Properties and on the compatibility tab, set it to "Always run as Administrator". That should allow you to save the export settings.

The alternative would be to reinstall FT3 in a non-Program Files folder.
