    Set dowload location specific to apps???


    I really need to find a way to tell certain apps to dowload in a different place than other apps...

    I know that chrome offers an option to set the dowload location seperately, but until now, only browsers have added this feature but no regular apps (like Teams).


    Also, if anyone finds a solution that requires programming, then i'd also like to know if its possible to tell an app to dowload content to one folder when the time is (for example) between 5:00 to 6:15 and to a different folder if its 6:16 to 7:00...

    (but that might be asking to much i guess)


    Help would be much appreaciated...

    :)

    Location setting

    Hi,



    This issue could occur due to incorrect location settings or it would depend on your IP address. We suggest you to check the location settings of your PC, and check if it helps. Here are the steps:

    • Click the Start button, and select Settings.
    • Go to Privacy, and choose Location.
    • Make sure that the Location service is On.


    If issue persists, then it has something to do with your IP address. It’s because the location detected depends on the location set on your IP address.



    Let us know how it goes.

  4. Set dowload location specific to apps???

    Cortana and Location Settings

    Hi,

    I realize the inconvenience you are facing. Let me help you in resolving the issue.

    This issue may occur if location settings are not turned on for Cortana.

    To turn on location settings for cortana, I suggest you to try these steps and check if it helps.




    • Click on Start Button and type Location in the search.

    • Open Location Privacy Settings.

    • Under the option "choose apps that can use your location" check if Cortana is turned on.

    • If not turn on and check if it helps.
    Also suggest you to check if similar issue persists on another user account.



    Create another administrator user account by referring to

    Set up accounts
    on Windows 10 article.



    The corrupted user profile does not function normally such as not launching
    Start menu, Cortana, Search bar, Store and other
    Windows applications. In such cases creating a new profile and checking for the same will help in identifying if the is specific to corrupted user profile or the OS.



    Write to us with the status of the issue on the same post for further assistance.
    Your reply is most important for us to ensure we assist you accordingly.



    Thank you.
