in this video I'm going to show you how
0:02
you can change the path of all your
0:03
downloads on your Mozilla Firefox
0:06
browser ordinarily all the files that I
0:08
download using Mugilla Firefox normally
0:10
go to downloads and if I go to downloads
0:14
and downloads folder all the files that
0:15
I download with Firefox are stored here
0:18
however I like to change that so that
0:20
all my files that I download
0:22
automatically go to specific folder that
0:24
I've created called files so let me show
0:26
you how you can change your download
0:28
path in Firefox from the default
0:30
downloads to this folder my name is
0:33
Isaac and this is a minute with AI so
0:36
let's get started now the first thing
0:37
you need to do is to open your Firefox
0:39
browser and then go to these three dots
0:42
so if you tap on them look for the
0:44
option called settings and from settings
0:47
tap on general and here it is now under
0:50
general scroll down until you see the
0:52
option called files and applications and
0:56
here we go now the first option is
0:58
downloads and as you can see under save
1:00
files you can see it goes to downloads
1:03
however I like to change this to my own
1:05
folder that I have created so to change
1:07
this go to browse here and then this
1:10
will take you to your computer and then
1:12
select the file that you want so I'll go
1:15
ahead and tap on desktop because my
1:17
folder is on desktop and then the folder
1:19
that I want is this called files so I'll
1:22
go ahead and tap on files and tap on
1:25
select folder and immediately you can
1:27
see the path has been changed from
1:29
downloads to a folder called files that
1:32
is on desktop now from here go ahead and
1:35
exit you can just exit by again tapping
1:37
on these three dots and tap on exit so
1:40
let's go ahead and try downloading any
1:43
document or any file and see if indeed
1:45
it will go to that folder so let's go
1:48
ahead and try downloading this image on
1:50
this website and see if indeed Firefox
1:52
will direct it to our folder called
1:55
files so I'll go ahead and tap on
1:58
downloads here and then just download
1:59
the small
2:01
file and then the download process will
2:03
begin here it is it has been
2:07
downloaded so I can go ahead and tap on
2:10
it to open and as you can see it is
2:12
under a folder called files so if I go
2:14
to the desktop I can see all my files
2:16
that I'm downloading are stored here so
