Description

On Windows Vista, when an update is detected, it opens the "Save As" dialog with the user's "Documents" folder as the preselected default download location. It should use the user's "Downloads" folder.

Do you remember from which version you updated from?

comment:2 by thestoryteller, 17 years ago

From 3.0.8.1 to 3.0.9.2

You know by chance how to get the directory path using the Windows API? There's no CSIDL for the downloads directory.

CSIDL is replaced by KNOWNFOLDERID in Vista:
