Re: [XPPro] download question
said by packen  :I am using Mozilla. I found the place to change where to download to. It was set to download to desktop. I don't know how that happened, but I changed it back to let me specify the location. Thanks to all that replied. Yep, that's where I was headed with my question. Glad you found where to fix it.

I would ask the same question that La Luna did, what browser are you using. I use IE8, Firefox and Chrome and all have an ability under Options to designate what folder you want downloads to save to. I too like to designate one Download folder then I install, move or what ever once it is done.

Maybe this will help (if you're using MSIE)

That just gives me the option to save the file but will not let me specify the location to store it. Everything I download goes directly to my desktop. If I want it to go to a separate folder I have to move it after the download is done.
This just recently started happening. I used to be able to tell it where to put the file. |

| It used to be, when I went to download a file, I would click the link and a window would come up asking me where I wanted to save the file. Now, I no longer have that choice. When I click the link, a window pops up with the option to save but it doesn't let me choose where to save. Everything goes to the desktop. How can I make it give me the option? |
