Currently there is no way to do that, I'm working on it for a long time now, I had prioritized web for the sane, but I'll prioritize windows now since you need it, but please understand it will take time since I've got really busy with my job

Any updates?

The PR is actually merged, test the saveAs function @MAlazhariy @rshrc

I was working with this a little today. The save as dialog opens as expected, but it does not look like the file actually saves to the location when you press save. I do not notice any error that appear in the debug console. Is there anything I need to configure before hand to make this work?

Wdym? What are you trying to do? SaveAs already works right?

I was trying to use SaveAs and the dialogs work as expected but the file is never saved to the location I select.

Oh weird, I'll test it out once, give me more details:
Platform,
Platform version,
File,
File type

[√] Flutter (Channel stable, 3.19.2, on Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19045.2965],
locale en-US)

the file was just a .png image. I cannot share the actual file with you I'm sorry.

Thanks

Were you able to find anything with this?

Not yet, but can you tell me how you are trying to save the file? So that I can reproduce?

[msmartin4470]

await FileSaver.instance.saveAs(name: p.basenameWithoutExtension(path), ext: p.extension(path), mimeType: MimeType.png , file: File(path));

[msmartin4470]

Anything new with this? I noticed another issue with the same problem opened. I think there just needs to be a write file after GetSaveFileName(&ofn) in file_saver_plugin.cpp. I was going to attempt myself, but I ran into some other issues. If there is anyway to get the in quick it would be super helpful.

Thanks,
Mike
