After you upgrade from 8.2, 8.3 or 8.4 to the current version, the Save As Template and Save As (Drilldown/AlarmLog) dialogs might still point to the previous installation path since Windows saved the path in the registry.

Workaround

You must manually redirect and save to the new default Quest path such as "%current_user%\AppData\Roaming\Quest\Shared\Templates".
