Export Embedded Media Issue

Hello,

I think this may be a glitch that when I click the "Export Embeded Media" button in Model Settings, the media files doesn't exported, but only "My Documents" folder opened.

As the manual explained, the media files should be exported to directory of fsm model.

Software Version:

FlexSim 22.2.2

Do you have rights to write in this folder? it might be possible, that privileges of current user can read in the destination but not to write or change.

I have invoked administrator privileges for FlexSim but the result is same.

I took a look at code of export button and after some test. Somehow "byteblocktofile" command failed to handle file path that contains Chinese characters. And "openfolderandselectitems" can't reach modeldir() even the model placed in path with English characters only.

You need to check chinese characters in the folder name of the model.
