FireFox downloads cluttering your Desktop?

December 04, 2008 By: xpertanywhere Category: Tech Tips

By default, Mozilla Firefox will save all downloaded files to your your desktop.  This can get rather messy, so we recommend creating a folder just for your downloads, and then setting FireFox to use this new folder as default instead.

To do this:

1)  create a folder on your hard drive (for example, in C: ) named “downloads“  (or whatever you prefer)

2)  in Firefox, click on TOOLS –>  OPTIONS

3)  Make sure you’re in the Main tab, and click Browse next to “Save files to”

Select Folder

Select Folder

Now just browse to the folder you created on your hard drive!
