Change Internet Explorer default save location

I’m sure some of you are interested how to change default save location in Internet Explorer (IE) because I know I was as soon as I started using it.
Until now I found two ways how to do this.

1. Users friendly version:- Open Internet Explorer and press Ctrl+J (I love shortcuts don’t you) to open View Downloads window.

- At the lower left corner find Options and click it.

- Choose folder by clicking on Browse and selecting new default Save folder of your choice.

- Confirm changes by clicking OK few times.

2. Advanced users version:- Open Windows Registry Editor (regedit.exe)
- Browse to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main

- Find String “Default Download Directory” and Modify it.
- Enter new default Save folder location. For example: c:\temp
- Exit Windows Registry Editor

Now you can just press Save button in IE and items will be saved to new location without the need of selecting Save As all the time :)

This is it for today. Have fun!
