  2. Run Fidder Everywhere, ensure that Setting -> HTTPS -> Decrypt HTTPS traffic is checked
  3. Press Settings -> HTTPS -> Decrypt HTTPS traffic -> Export root certificate to Desktop
  4. Error message is shown in a tooltip:

Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Users<username>\Desktop\FiddlerRootCertificate.crt'.

If you create a "Desktop" folder in the expected location, the cert exports w/o error.

It would be better (and probably a very small code change) to simply prompt the user for a save location when you click the Export button instead of assuming a particular location exists.
