Set Folder to download #37

How can I set a specific folder to download the file, instead of the default folder "Downloads"?

I think that this is impossible to decide on by the webpage, for security reasons - imagine you were able to tell the client to download anywhere on disk. All you can do is ask browsers to download things.

you can customize your browser settings to ask or auto-save to a custom folder. from JS, there's nothing we can do.
