Whenever I click on a link (Firefox 3.6.13) to download a file the download folder will default to C:\Users\Myname\Downloads\Other.

I've set a totally different folder in the settings.. It just gets ignored.
Even if I tell Download Studio (v6.0.7.0) to remember the last used folder it will still default to C:\Users\MyFolder\Downloads\Other... :mad:

I still can select my desired folder in the dropdown menu though..

Anyone knows how I could fix this?

Edit: This is on Windows 7 Ultimate, 64bit

If you go to 'Tools->Options->General->Categories', select 'Other Files' and click the 'Edit' button. You will see that 'Default Download folder' is checked, this causes DownloadStudio to use this download folder for all files of this type (*.*) meaning all files.

You can disable this by unchecking 'Default Download folder'.

Thanks for the quick reply.

I've turned the 'auto categorization' off now since I don't use it and voilą my download go where I want!
