if you want to change where your files
0:06
are normally stored when you download
0:08
anything on the interweb this video will
0:10
help you to do so Now on my computer or
0:13
by default Google Chrome browser is set
0:15
to download and store all the downloaded
0:18
files under downloads So if I go ahead
0:21
and tap on my downloads you can see
0:23
under downloads I have all the
0:25
downloaded files on my computer However
0:28
you may want to change this and design a
0:30
specific folder to direct all your
0:32
downloads Now I want to change my
0:34
download folder from downloads to this
0:37
folder called files And therefore
0:39
everything that I download I want it to
0:41
be stored under this file So let me show
0:44
you how you can go about that Now the
0:46
first thing you need to do is to open
0:48
your Google Chrome browser And from here
0:50

0:52
dots and then scroll down and get to
0:55
settings
0:58
Now from settings you'll have various
1:00
options here Scroll down until you get
1:03
to downloads Now click on it and then
1:05
you'll see the downloads location By
1:08

downloads and this is on drive C So to
1:15
change it just tap on this change here
1:17

1:33
choose this folder called files Then tap
1:36
on open And immediately the location has
1:39
been changed to files folder
1:42
Alternatively you can choose this option
1:44
And when you choose this second option
1:46
each time you want to download a file
1:48
you'll be asked to choose where you want
1:50
it to be saved So I'll go with the first

1:56
downloads when they are done So I'll
1:58
