Export settings give me no options for export to local computer

I can easily export to media channels. The problem is, "I DON'T WANT TO"! I just want to set up an Export Preset to files on my COMPUTER. I am totally baffled. I know I used to do it very easily, for it was there in some menu! Now I can't find it when I am encoding a batch. I'm embarrassed, because it is probably right there before my eyes. I think I am having a senior moment!  😞

thanks, Mike

You can select all the encoding jobs and then click on one of the output links and choose your folder and all the jobs will now also change to that folder.

Those aren't export options, they're upload options (as indicated by the "Upload" tab vs the "Video" or "Audio" tabs). Simply leaving them unchecked and choosing a destination via the blue link at the very top of the Export Settings dialog will do what you want.

Can you confirm that in your Queue Panel you have the Output File column and can click on the blue link and choose a folder?

Yes, I do have that. But the way it is set up, I have to click on each new file in the new job to change it to a new folder! It keeps defaulting back to another folder that I had used in a previous job. There should be a way I can designate a SINGLE new folder for the entire batch instead of having to do it on every file. Like a Master Folder or something like that? I cannot find a way to do that. thanks, Mike
