Blue Iris

When I look at the Alerts storage folder under Blue Iris, I am not saving or capturing any of the alert files I see on the left hand side of the display. Should not these be saved to this folder and how do I get this to happen? I am saving files in the new folder

Your's recording Continuously, correct? In this case, the Alerts are pointers in the continuous .bvr recording, and not separate recordings.

If recording 'When triggered', the motion detection recordings will be put into the folder specified by 'Folder'.
