Quickly download stuff to your pre-chosen folders from the comfort of your context menu!
**NOTE**: For security reasons, Chrome doesn't allow extensions to do certain things, such as choosing arbitrary download locations or disabling the "save as" dialog. But you can do it! I believe in you! Just read on.
How to use, step-by-step:
1. In the extension's settings page, set up a list of folders. These will appear on your context menu so you can download stuff directly to them.
2... Uhh, that's it.
** FAQ **
* How do I download to locations outside the default downloads folder?
You just need to set up symlinks (for more info, just head to the settings page after you install the extension).
* How do I get rid of the "save as" dialog?
Just head to your browser's preferences and disable this feature.
* I find this extension so outrageously stupid. What should I do?

Great extension! Works great most of the time. I've had a few instances where it saved the file without a file type. Needs custom hotkeys! |

Sorta works in Vivaldi. Getting failed html files in the Download manager. Symlink points to another drive, which may be a problem. |

Unfortunately it has two big problems that prevented me to use it: (i) doesn't work saving images whose URLs contain dynamic parameters after the filename (e.g. site/image.jpg?width=1500 , which are common on ArtStation and Squarespace-based websites), and (ii) no ability to export/import your path configuration (I have many paths that need to be re-typed manually every single time I install Chrome or if it crashes/resyncs) |
