With Windows XP, it’s easier than ever to download software updates, games, sounds, pictures—just about anything. But sometimes it’s hard to find them again on your hard disk. To make sure you can, specify where you want a downloaded file to go.

To specify where a downloaded file goes:

1. After you’ve indicated you want to download an item, a dialog box asks “What do you want to do with this file?” Select Save this program to disk.
2. A dialog box opens where you can specify a folder where you want the file to go.
