I am working on a PSD file and want to save a certain result as a JPG in the same folder where the PSD is. I have been working with this function for years now, I have originally created it as an action with a keystroke… and suddenly it doesn't work anymore. It now saves the file in the folder where I saved the last file  I was working on. I dont know why, and I cannot re-create it. I am desperate.

Please anybody … help

and thanx in advance already

Adobe broke all the links when the forum software was last updated.

 

If you know the topic title, you can search for the topic as the titles didn't break, just the link:

Please post a screenshot of the fully expanded Action in the Actions Panel. 

If you recorded the Path in the original Action then it would naturally be used when running the Action.

I threw out the old action since it didn't work anymore, and created a new one which I am attching here. I attach another screenshot from the Voreinstellungen>Dateienhandhabung> save as in ursprüngl Ordner. I don't know if that influences the action question.

 

Thank you

The Action includes the Path, so you may want to look into Scripting.
