Don't want to save, not open when downloading.

[Schmidty]

I accedently clicked on the box that say (Do not ask me
again) when downloading and I opened. Now eveytime I
start to download it opens instead of giving me the
option to download.

I need to find out where I go to change it back to
default. PLease help.

Thanks

Open Windows Explorer, go to Tools, Folder Options, File Types. Locate the
file type in question, highlight it and click the Advanced button and check
Confirm Open after download.

Thank you for responding. I did not write my problem very
clear. When I download anything using internet explorer
(any type of file) it does not give me an option of where
to save it. It just opens it.
So if I do what you say, how do I select all types of
files.
Thanks again,
Schmidty
