Howdy, is there a way to have the extract cover art feature remember the last place you extracted to? My use case is I upload my album art to last.fm when I see they don't have a cover yet, and each time I extract it goes to the album's folder instead of my desired location, the desktop, for easy upload.

Or could you add a feature to set the extract location itself if that's easier? Thank you!

You can (already) set a partially or fully qualified filename in the action to export covers to file.

You can (also already) set set a partially or fully qualified filename in the action to import covers from file.

You can also set a partially or fully qualified filename in File\>Options\>Tag-Sources if you get covers with web source scripts.
