# Downloading files

Files which you download from the internet, such as email attachments, will automatically be saved into your Downloads folder. You can change this in the Preferences.

Press the menu button in the top-right corner of the window and select Preferences General.

Press the Download folder name to select a different folder for downloads. If the folder that you want to use is not in the list, select Other… to browse for it.

If you want to choose which directory to use each time you download a file, switch Ask on download to on.

If you save a file instead of downloading it, you will still need to specify where you want to save it to.

It is not possible to choose where to save downloads if you are using Flatpak to run Web. Downloads will always be saved in your Downloads folder.
