All of the commands in the toolbar of FireShot give this error.  I tried to save a screenshot with no luck, so i thought I would email it as is, and got the same error.  Thanks for any help

Please make sure your browser has permissions to create folders and files in your Application Data folder.

ok do you know how to change those settings in Firefox ?  I do not know how to check for those permissions.

You need to read something about file permissions.
For example, try http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=windows+file+permissions ...

Using FS 0.76, I also get "Failed to get access to folder '"' error, for any attempt to save to any given folder AFTER THE FIRST. i.e. it will save successfully anywhere, but only the first time. I must save to a different location the next time, and a different one again after that, etc.

This occurs regardless of whether the SAVE is done directly or from the Editor.

The bug has been fixed and the update will be available at addons.mozilla.org soon.
