Hey, i have a IWCGJQFileDownload on my application to get a file from the database, but it downloads the file automatically to "Downloads" folder, I want the use to be able to select the folder he/she wants to save the file before starting the download... is that possible?

Hi Lynkin,

This depends on the browser settings(e.g: Chrome):

There checkbox to "Ask where to save each file before downloading".

Best Regards.

Hello Linkin,

good name :)

You cannot change the downloads folder using javascript, of course that should exist some tweaks, but nothing that can used safely and cross browser.
