<p>Where is EQ2, for that matter?  (Computers didn't used to be this hard.)</p><p>Should be in the same folder as EQ2, right.  The path is C:ProgramDataSony Online EntertainmentInstalled GamesEverQuest IILaunchPad.exe.  Problem is, I have no ProgramData file that I can see.  I've gone into C and changed permissions so I should be able to see the directory, but no luck. </p><p>Any ideas, short of making my screenshots with Windows Paint? </p>

<p>well, that's the crazy thing.  It should be in C:ProgramFiles(X86)SonyEverQuestIIScreenShots but there's no EverQuestII there.  Vanguard is there, no EQ2.  </p><p> I've been looking for this thing for some time.  Personally, I could care less.  As long as it runs, who cares where it is?  But my husband has been looking for his stupid screenshots and he's driving me nuts.   <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/2786c5c8e1a8be796fb2f726cca5a0fe.gif" border="0" /></p>

<p>Yep, not where it shoulda' been heh, this'll help.</p><p>On the Icon you click to start up EverquestII, Right click it and choose "Properties" and look under the "Shortcut" Tab.</p><p>You'll see where it says "Target" and under that "Start in:"</p><p>after "Start In:" it'll show you where it got put and that is where your screenshots will be. You'll be able to read it and click:</p><p>Start>Computer>Local Disc (C<img src="/eq2/images/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" />>"whatever it said after "target". and then screenshots.</p><p> PS. Yea sure, blame it on the husband....</p>

<p>For those directionally challenged - including myself <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" />- I did a search for "screenshots" and found them!</p>
