Ask where to save each file before downloading
February 7, 2015 / by Marco / Categories : Google, Software, Technology, TIP AND TRICKS
By default, when you click on a file to download it will save it in the download folder e.g c:\users\[account name]\Downloads
If you want to be a bit more organised like me, I save files in a specific location. That way I don’t have to move the files at a later stage. Each browser has their own way of doing things so this option is different in each program you use. Below you will find the steps required to enable this feature in each browser:
Google Chrome
Click on the 3 lines at the top right hand corner
Click Settings
Click Show Advanced settings
Go to the downloads section and make sure “Ask where to save each file before downloading” is selected
Now every time you download a file in Google Chrome, you will be prompted to select a location.
Firefox
Click on options
Click General

In the Downloads section click on Always ask me where to save files

Now every time you download a file in Firefox, you will be prompted to select a location.
Internet Explorer
Click on the wheel at the top right hand corner

Scroll down to Downloads and select prompt
