Specify download location
I want to be able to specify the destination when downloading via the web to a PC that does not have Dropbox installed. Dropbox seems to default to the Windows default download folder, and I cannot find an option to change this.
- That's a function of the browser that you're using, and not Dropbox. Look in settings/preferences/options for whatever browser you're using.

Thank you for the reply, but I am disappointed to learn that Dropbox does not offer that functionality. If Dropbox folks monitor this forum, please consider this a request for that feature.

Dropbox can't offer that functionality. Your browser controls it. The download process is a function of your browser, not Dropbox. Dropbox just sends the data to your browser. It's your browser that handles it, including the save location. Just change the setting in your browser and your problem is solved. No changes to Dropbox required (or possible).
