[ERROR] No file specified on save action / auto-save not writing to target folder #175

Summary

1- When saving settings in clawPDF, I get an error stating that "No script file is specified", even after setting the script file in Actions menu.
Noting that this error also occurred when I disabled all actions!
2- When printing a file (e.g. notepad), the output is supposed to be saved in the folder I set the Auto-Save menu, but that is not the case.
They don't have to be related, they are some errors I saw that I hope to be fixed.

Steps to Reproduce

Open Profile Settings → Actions.

Enable Run Script(or any action), specify a valid script, then click Save.

Observe error.

Disable Run Script, enable Auto-Save, set Target Folder to e.g. C:\Users<you>\Desktop\Test.

Print any document.

Observe empty folder and error in log.

Expected Behavior

With Run Script enabled: Settings save successfully, and the specified script runs.

With Auto-Save enabled: Printed PDF files are written into the selected target folder.

Actual Behavior

Run Script enabled

[Error] clawSoft.clawPDF.Core.Actions.ScriptAction.Check: Missing script file
Run Script disabled, Auto-Save only

[Error] clawSoft.clawPDF.JobRunner.ProcessJob: 13:38:26.7097 11-05-2025
The job '*ihuygyu - Notepad' terminated at step SelectTarget and did not end successfully
