title: Custom Recordings Path & Windows Reliability Fixes

A focused release with a new custom recordings storage location and a set of Windows and recording reliability fixes.

## Features

- **Custom recordings storage path** - Choose where Cap stores your recordings from Settings -> General, instead of always using the default location.

## Fixes

- **Windows ghost overlay after recording** - Removed Cap Target Select from the default excluded windows list so it no longer leaves a ghost overlay behind after recording on Windows, with existing installs migrated automatically on startup.
- **Windows screenshot clipboard fix** - Screenshots copied to the clipboard on Windows are now composited onto a white background first, fixing screenshots that previously pasted with a black or transparent backdrop.
- **Mic/video sync double-count fix** - Fixed an audio/video sync issue where trimmed microphone samples could be double-counted, throwing off the mic offset calculation in the editor.
- **Safer recordings folder handling** - Added error logging, safer path conversion, and better error handling around recordings folder commands so failures are easier to diagnose instead of failing silently.

## Performance

- **Faster file exports** - Exporting to a file now skips an unnecessary transparency pixel scan, speeding up the export pipeline.
