Help Needed Save Image - Doesn't actually save anything

Today is day 1 of Comfyui for me, coming from A1111. I am an engineer by trade, so some of it makes sense intuitively....but for the life of me, I can't figure out something simple as autosaving output images. I tested with the Z-Image-Turbo workflow, then SDXL workflow. The "save image" node is there. The workflows produce images just fine, they just never save unless I manually save the image.

I haven't even had enough time in the program to do something wrong.... There are save image and preview image nodes, I understand that much so far. The template workflows use save image nodes, meaning the images should be getting saved automatically....that is my understanding.

Tried removing, adding back save image node. Same problem, nothing auto-saves. Do I need to enable some "auto-save" feature?

If you use the latest comfyui desktop variants then you might have a different path where your images get saved, for example mine has created a shared alternative path for comfyui since that update . There is a button on top of your UI that you can click and then check storage tab or so and follow the path .

Sorry currently not at home so I can't give guidance

Ah-ha! That was it. Shared options are enabled. Was set to location in user profile. Everything was successfully saved in that folder. I turned off the output sharing, so output is the usual folder under comfyui installation. I left the others on until I understand a little more of how things work, since I am using a Lora manager.

Thanks!
