Thanks, but I most often have a requirement to put downloads in different folders depending on the file type and its association. If everything goes into the Download folder, then I just have to move each one again after the download. Being able to specify the destination folder often saves time. For example, if an e-mail comes with say, five related attachments, e.g., project files, then specifying the destination folder for the first one, most often provides a default location for the remaining four attachments.

With the “Always Ask” option, the user is made aware of the download and has the chance to refuse.
