Forgive me if this is a repeat. I posted this question a while back and either didn’t get an answer or missed it. Our news server seems to skip a few hours now and then.

A few months ago I created an action to convert a folder of images into thumbnails, saving to a folder called "thumbs." Ran it as a batch process just fine.

Now I come back to run a new batch. The batch process dialog happily accepts the new origin folder, but completely ignores the destination folder, still saving to the old "thumbs" folder, that fortuitously was still around. Also ignores the naming conventions I entered (e.g., add "TN" to the filename). Same behavior whether or not I check "Override action save commands." Another person in our office just set up a different batch process and had the same problem. Is this a bug or are we doing something wrong?
