    Hi Horrorstead,

    You should be saving in to that Dropbox folder which you access via the Dropbox app on the computer.

    Usually it installs to \Users\*your username\Dropbox (Personal)\ can you see that?

    hm?!!?!

    click on the folder icon when the menu opens by clicking on your menubar icon

    now your Dropbox folder should open

    now right click (or ctrl. click depending on your mouse configuration) on the titlebar of this window right on the name - it should be "Dropbox" in your case. In my screenshot it´s named "Dropbox (Privat)" because I have a team folder too.

    Under Dropbox your see the path where it resides - in my case on my internal drive "DATA" on my iMac.
