Tethered capture and the Z9

Hello again, everybody! Thank you in advance for any advice so I was doing one of my first inside studio shoots yesterday and I wanted my client to be able to see what I was shooting on my computer monitor to make calling in bed images motor years year out of me when it came to adding. I went out and spent 56 bucks on the tethered USB-C cable, and just like with everything else, I figured tethered capture would be easy.  turn on tethered capture, and be ready to go. I use my Z9 for live streaming through YouTube all the time with just a Thunderbolt three cable, which I read, apparently wasn't enough to do what I wanted it to do hence going out and buying the 15 foot orange tether tools. So what am I doing wrong? I have a camera set to "connection type, camera control" When I go to start trying to do tether initially capture it asks me what collection I want to put it in. I just basically want to have a folder within my catalogs for when I do shoots that require tethering  where just end up in there, I feel like there's some setting I have on or something that is not allowing me to do it, and when I have the camera plugged in and it charges, so at least I know the cable works. Someone please help!

Tether capture's add to collection is optional. When you use Start Tethered Capture from the file menu, you should see the following dialog to set it up. Are you seeing this at least?

Yes! That is the exact screen I see, except for the template section.
