Failed to Export - "choose another path or file name"

[mariap65088559]

Help! I just started off in Animate and I'm unable to export. I use the software in portuguese, so the names may be different due to translation.

I go to export>media/video and I set it to h264 Default (AME) and it doesn't send to Media Encoder, it just shows up a pop up saying "not able to save for the file name. Choose another file name or different path". I followed many tutorials and looked for answers in forums, but havent found anything.

Now, I obviously tried changing the file name and the path its saved, but nothing. I also tried exporting in other formats, other folders, even png sequence doesn't work. It might be a problem with my Media Encoder, I never used it before, might need to set something up?
Please help, I have a project due!

create a new directory on your desktop

save your fla to that desktop directory with a new name (eg teste_animate)

retry exporting

It worked, thank you! So was the issue the path or the .fla file name with a space?

it could have been the space, but sometimes the cause of that problem is inexplicable.
