Where Does Screen Studio Save Projects?
Screen Studio saves editable projects with File Save to a default folder, changeable in Settings under General.
Last updated
Screen Studio projects save apart from exports. File then Save writes the editable project into the default projects folder. File then Save as asks for a custom spot per video. Closing with unsaved changes prompts before anything vanishes.
Exports are separate decisions with their own save dialogs. Raw recording extraction, shareable links, and presets branch off the saved project. Change the default home in Screen Studio Settings General so new tutorials land in your current course folder.
Where Screen Studio stores this, by platform
User-chosen projects folder (Settings > General)
Find past work with File and Open recent or Show previous projects, or right click the Dock icon. Exports ask for destinations up front before encoding starts.
Frequently asked questions
How do I change where Screen Studio saves projects?
Open Screen Studio Settings with Cmd plus comma, go to General, and pick a new projects directory. Future saves default there; existing projects stay where they were.
Do I need to export right after recording?
No. Save the project and edit later, or share it with other Screen Studio users. Export when the cut, zoom, and audio are final to avoid re renders.
