down again or use the My Computer button in the save window* - it takes
a long time, with the torch waving, before it shows me the list of
drives and a couple of things like "my documents". (If done from Win+E,
also shows the webcam.)

(*Yes, I know browsers can be set to always save in the same place. I
don't want that - I want it to ask me where. That would be sidestepping
the problem anyway.)

There's a third option, which is the one I use: I do let it prompt me as to
where to save downloads, but then I usually just save it to a folder named
"Downloads" which is pretty much reserved for this activity. THEN I can
later move the file(s) to whereever I think it/they ultimately belong(s).

Isn't that a whole lot simpler and easier? And otherwise, I've got to keep
searching for the proper place to store each file, each and every time I
download something, on each and every browser, which is a PIA. It's just
easier to save it in one location, and then later move it to wherever it
ultimately belongs.

In the final analysis, I would classify this as solving a problem that
doesn't deserve to be a problem - not sidestepping it. :-)
