¿Cómo descargar un archivo a una carpeta específica?

Question

Quiero descargar un archivo a una carpeta específica.Estoy usando WebClient.DownloadFile, pero lo que me gustaría es dejar que el usuario seleccione dónde se guardará este archivo, no solo la descargue en ninguna carpeta.

¿Cómo puedo hacer esto?

Answer 1

The folder that the user would download the file to would depend on their browser, and system settings.

All you can do is provide the file to download, and it would be up to them (and their browser) to select a local folder (on their system).

If you want to control that process, you would have to use an embedded plugin like Java, Silverlight, Flash, etc.

Answer 2

If you are using Windows Forms, you can use the SaveFileDialog class to allow the users to pick a file name, and then pass that name to the second parameter of WebClient.DownloadFile.
