Until the release of FF Quantum (v 57.0), there has been the ability to save downloaded files outside of the "windows default" downloads directory. Probably the most useful add-on in FF was called "save file to" and would allow saving to specific directories (i.e. pictures, music, desktop).

I download hundreds of photos on a weekly basis, along with PDF's from Google Docs. Having to constantly go to the downloads folder and then move these items is both time wasting and it clogs up the directory.

Please restore the ability to select your download location - OUTSIDE OF THE DEFAULT DOWNLOADS DIRECTORY!

Mozilla would be smart to incorporate this ability into the proper browser code (thus having the ability to ensure there is not malicious code). The ability, in a download dialog, to select the download location as DESKTOP or PICTURES or MUSIC would be extremely useful to many users. We have 10+ in our organization who are complaining about this feature removal today.

Thank you for your consideration

hi, when you go to the firefox menu ≡ > options > general panel you can set firefox to "Always ask you where to save files" in the downloads section.
