Every other save is blank, Lost save location only defaults to download folder

5.67.2213
I have used your program for years.  
Every other save is a blank. I have to close it and then save it again. I can no longer save the shortcut to the last used folder. It always defaults back to the Download folder. I change the location back to where I want. example, the desktop. It will only go back to the Download folder next save. I have "Ask where to save each file before downloading" checked in both Opera and Chrome. It does not make a difference

Youtube - save as shortcut - channel name

Hi,

I've been using your 'Save as Shortcut' -chrome extension for a while
and been very happy about it. :-)

However with Youtube pages I have a request to file name patterns.

My setting for 'Shortcut file name pattern' is:
%title% - %host%

Ex. Youtube page:
LS Head Milling On Bridgeport Mill - LS_Eh - Youtube
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZYGSr9h1SI
The suggested shortcut name is:
LS Head Milling On Bridgeport Mill - YouTube - www.youtube.com.desktop
What I would like it to be is:
LS Head Milling On Bridgeport Mill - LS_Eh - YouTube.desktop
i.e. the format should be:
%title%-' - Youtube' - %yt_channel% - %host%-'www.'.desktop

Suggest:

1) 'Shortcut file name pattern' configurable as a default and by host host name
-configuration by host name
-default %title% output editable/configurable
-default %host% output editable/configurable

2) Youtube page
%title% 'title - Youtube'
changed to
%title% 'title'

3) Add %yt_channel% to available Shortcut file name patterns

Yours

Today, my assigned hotkeys for activating the extension -- Shft-Ctrl-V -- stopped working.

Any suggestions? Thank you.

Save as Shortcut

Great Extension but is missing the "Web Document Tab", as this is where the shortcut Icon can be changed - any chance it could be added ???

An option to change the file name of the shortcut generated

It'd be nice, if the user could chose the filename of the shortcut file the extension generates (that'd be especially useful when making shortcuts to, say, YouTube Shorts videos, where the videos often have the same titles, but e.g. the date is different).

Option to open new window when opening file

I tend to use multiple Chrome windows for diffrent uses. I find it really annoying that there is no option to open the tabs in a new Chrome window because I would like to open the files and it all going to a new window instead of it adding to an existing Chrome window. If this is already a thing its not clear where it is or what it is called...

Thanks!

Can no longer export to a text file?

Just last week I was able to export all open tabs to a text file and all I had to do was copy each one and paste them into my browser, but now the only option available is to save all the tab urls as a zip file. What happened? You extension was a life-saver but now I can't figure out a practical way to use it.

Bookmarks Archive Usage

Great Coding! I am assuming the reason for archiving all bookmarks is to be able to restore or import them later, am I right? I ask because I would love to somehow export (archive) bookmarks to windows some how, sort or delete or edit then save them back into chrome. Am I dreaming?
