This is not an application issue but I am just wondering since the plugin has a feature to delete the source image after moving it to the processed folder location, does anyone have a solution to EDMC not having Windows permission to deleting from the default ED screenshot folder inside the '%userprofile%\Pictures?' beside like running EDMC in administrator mode?

I really appreciate the converting into .png routine that helps with high-res screenshot so I really want to use this haha
