Hello, I'm not able to take any screenshot in game.

It's always like this: The option is grey and I can't change it.

I run the latest version of action!, I format my pc and it still the same issue.
I can record game without any trouble.

The option is grayed out because you only have 1 monitor...

When you have 2 monitors, youll be able to select what monitor the screenshot is taken from.

Try pressing F12 inside a game and see if it works.

Thanks for the answer but I can push whatever key I want (F12 in that case), it doesn't do anything.

I just tried taking screenshots too, I press F12 (the keybind for it, I checked), and no screenshots are taken... or they are saved into another folder?

Default folder is C:\Users\UserName\Pictures\Action!

Is there any way you could add a "Chose the folder" to save the screenshots in? I would REALLY like to NOT save them on my C: drive... :D

Of course you can change default folder. Just open screenshots tab in Action!, then you can select whatever folder you want (in the left panel).

Already checked and nothing inside, like also the one where the screen should appear. It simply doesn't work for me.

Could you upload a screenshot of your Screenshot tabs.
