HI
When you save your work as a .vpj file then clicking the File tab and selecting "Save Project File" or "Save Project File As" from the list, VideoPad will show the default destination folder at the top of the save window as being the folder where you last loaded a clip from. (Rather logical if they are all to be kept together). But you can use the button at the bottom of the save window to choose a different destination folder. You could for example create a folder on the desktop beforehand called "VP Projects" and always use that.
Also when VP loads the opening "Splash" screen shows recent projects no matter where they are and you can choose one from this.
If VP is already open, clicking the File tab on the top toolbar will show a "Recent Project" option which will also open a list.
