Where does the finished render file reside by default?

• A. The project folder
• B. The system's temporary cache
• C. The selected destination folder
• D. The desktop

Answer: (C)

The finished render goes exactly where you choose in the Deliver page’s render settings—the render destination. Resolve writes the output file to the folder you specify for that render job, not automatically into the project folder or the system’s temporary cache, and not by default to the desktop unless you pick it as the destination. In other words, the default location is the folder you select as the destination for that render, and you can change it for each render if needed.
