batch process goes to wrong folder

When I created an action in CS6 to taked tiffs and process with various parameters into jpegs, when I'd run the action as a batch from Bridge, they would go into the same folder.  But now in CC, they go to a set folder, and I have to change the last save function to go into the present folder, and so on, every time I want to process a batch in another folder.  

I think originally, it was 'save in same folder' but now it is save where last saved.  Can I change that option or do I have to create a new action with all the steps I have in the other?

Correct answer robirdman1

Now I don't know what is different.  The problem one is for vertical shots.  The action was dervied by duplicating that for horizontal and changing parameters to suit.  It stops on every picture.  No I tried the horizontal one.   I had made changes on both to be a larger and better quality picture.  The horizontal version goes through all without stopping.  I don't see what is different.   At least I usually have far fewer verticals.

 


script time?  I am surprised that no one could tell me the simple thing that I had forgotten during a long period of non-use.  Set it to 'save and close'  instead of 'folder' before running, and choose any folder if one wanted to go somewhere else.  Not necessary to creat new folders either unless desired.   SAVE and CLOSE is right answer!
