A download
folder is a folder where you save files that you download through your
computer. Many programs create a default download folder to save
downloads when they are installed, however the default location of the
download folder can sometimes be difficult to access or remember, which
is why you may want to create a new download folder in a location that
is more convenient for you. The steps used to create a download folder
are very similar to creating any type of new folder except you just
rename the folder to "Downloads" in order to indicate that you are
saving downloaded files in it.
Edit Steps
Windows Users
- 1Go to the start menu by clicking on the "Start" button at the bottom-left of your screen.
- 2Select "Computer." For other windows version like Windows XP click My Computer.
- 3Choose the drive where you want to create the new folder. Most people choose the "C:" drive, since it is usually the primary drive. This is more reliable because it is the same drive used to run the Windows operating system. However, you can choose any drive that you want including external hard drives, depending on your storage needs.
- 4Double click on "Drive C" of the "Computer" window.
- 5Hover your mouse cursor over "New Folder" and click it.
- 6You will see the new folder appear in the main window. The new folder will be highlighted.
- 7Type "Downloads." This will change the folder name from "New Folder" to "Downloads."
- 8Press the Enter key on your keyboard to save your changes. You can now start saving your downloads in the download folder that you have created.
