download dir d:/software but not file in there

Postby FDMuser2 » Sat Jun 25, 2011 11:06 am

hi!

i have set the download dir to d:/software, which is a hdd.
but when the downloadmanager is downloading a file, i dont see anything in this directory.

i have an ssd as OS-drive, but do not really want to have all the download writes on the ssd.
how can i set it to download temp files to D:/ as well

thanks!

Partially downloaded files are hidden until completely downloaded. To verify the partial files are there you can temporarily unhide hidden files in folder options.

If you mean the downoads aren't going where you want them, go into Options, Settings, the New Download option under Downloads list, choose the Set Default Download Folder, there you can choose where you want them to be.

The Advanced option under Miscellaneous is where you want to keep data files, not downloads.
