How to Change Default Download Location in Windows 11

Bro idk why they don’t make anything simple on pc lmao 😂

i dont have a location and have tried registry editor

This PC only shows Windows (C:) and no other folders. I am having trouble with download the epic games launcher but it keeps saying that I have a (D:) drive but I don't. Not sure what else to do.

That helped a lot

Does this work when downloading games from steam?

That was really helpful..Thank ya mate ❣❣❣❣

Thank you!
I didn't know it was this easy!

damn, was going fast enough to get to the point, and slow enough to follow at the same time.

wow so simple yet so informative thank you

I think it's worth mentioning that you shouldn't try deleting everything in the downloads tab after doing the steps in this video. i'm currently struggling to restore thousands of files that are neither on my hard drive nor my recycle bin.

thanks

Thanks alot :)

I accidently clicked no and lost the history list of it, is there a way to undo it or do I just deal with it?

Thanks! This video made putting all my screenshots easy to find on the desktop now instead of it being hidden somewhat on the Picture's screenshot folder.

I don’t see a downloads area :/

Now how can I do this in folders other than the 'Download' folder (for example; in the 'Documents' folder instead)?

Dude how do i change back the Download folder to the default location heeeeeelp😢😢

i’m over here using a not so great computer has bad storage and some of the things I download I don’t even use on my computer I use on other device I just download it to move it to a USB so I’m over here trying to make it so it directly download to the USB flash drive instead of my computer I’ve seen people do it, but I don’t know how to do it, so you’re the help I needed

I moved the downloads by mistake and it's not on this pc window anymore, how can I get it back?

did this and it changed nothing

Very helpful video

Thanks but is not working anymore????

Thank you for this I was wondering why it wasn't using my external harddrive.

Where do I find the hard drive so I can move my download location to the hard drive.

What happened to being able to choose Pictures going to The Pictures folder. Downloads going to the downloads folder and documents going to the documents folder

How do you revert it? If I check the Desktop folder it has no option to change the Downloads location but only the Desktop location... HELP! :c

Hi, How do i get it to ask me where to download each time? I don't want it going to the default, thanks Scott. Windows11

Windows wiped my computer clean and now I have multiple target folders for my saves for my desktop apps. Please help. Anytime I save or make a folder it gets saved to my desktop! I have 3 download folders under my pc and I want to delete 2 and just have 1. I have a picture if it helps.
