Default Download Directory in Internet Explorer

Whenever we download something using Internet Explorer it saves files in my documents.But You want to save your download to Local Drive (E) or any other drive that you think safe for your download just do as follows :

Before doing any registry change please back up your registry. by simply going to Start-Program me-Accessories-System Tool - System Restore and create a restore point. So in case of any problem this will bring your windows XP to its previous stage. Now move to the point.

For changing Default download directory of internet Explorer type regedit in run and press enter. registry editor will open .

Process :

Start-Run regedit and navigate to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer.
Change the value of the string "Download Directory" to the new path you want to assign as
IE's Default Download directory. Like E:\Sanjay\Downloads.
