You have two different questions here, and I hope I can give you two good answers
I don't think the early versions of ScreenRecorder display their version anywhere, but you can find it by right-clicking on the desktop icon and choosing Open file location. From that folder, hover your mouse cursor over the program and you should see the version, like this:
As for the temporary storage, I'm pretty sure you're using the version 1 SR, because it uses this folder on my Win10 PC C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\CyberLink\DskCapture\Temp - while SR2 saves the temp files on the destination drive and folder.
I searched through the registry and looked in several .ini files related to the PowerDirector version that had installed SR, but I couldn't find a setting to change the temp location.
Depending on how comfortable you are in making changes to Windows folders, you may want to redirect the temp folder to your F: drive. Otherwise, you'll have to free up space on your C: drive.
Here are the redirecting steps. Note that you may also need to change the View or Options settings in File Explorer to see the hidden AppData folder. Please use Google/Bing to get more info if you're unsure of anything I've written here
- Go to the AppData folder for your user account, then right click on the Roaming subfolder and choose Properties
- Click on the Location tab, then click on Move
- Choose a new location on your F: drive, You can create a new folder there if desired
- Click OK, and then Yes to confirm
Now when SR runs, it will store the temporary recording in the new location and your C: drive won't be affected.
Thanks for the reply. I'm not really looking to redirect all of my roaming data to the m.2 drive; just the screen recorder. But you did answer my question in a way -- it seems what I need is a newer version of the program.

First, some background
Screen recorder - not sure how to tell the version, but it is the one that is packaged with PowerDirector 14.
System - Windows 8.1, quad core, 8 GB RAM, laptop.
Ok so I do some pretty long captures and I have installed m.2 memory (500 GB) to store captured video. This storage is really fast so the system can keep up.
Here's the thing though; I've noticed that even though I'm telling screen recorder to store videos at f:\video, data is actually being stored somewhere on the c: drive (I can see the free storage going down significantly, and no space is used on f: until I close the recording).
Is there some way to change the temporary file storage for this application ?
