Are you talking about Export Selected Audio or Export Multiple?

Where are you trying to export to?  The same folder each time, even
if the files came from another folder?

Are you are asking then for the full path to the file to be noted in the
progress dialogue when you export?

After performing Export Multiple, a full list of file paths exported to
is given.

Many users want exactly that to happen, but I think it would be
useful to be able to set a default export folder too.
