Hi there,

To get the download dialog box, enable the "confirm open after download"
option for that filetype:

Click "Start" -> "Program Files" -> "Windows Explorer".

Then click "Tools" -> "Folder Options".

Change to the "File Type" tabs.

Scroll down to locate the file type. Highlight the filetype (example :"PPT
Microsoft PowerPoint Presentation") and click the "Advanced" button.

Then check the option "confirm open after download".

Also, set the "NoSelectDownloadDir" to "0"

i am still having problems saving files to my hard drive, someone told me to try and download the WinGuids Tweak Manager, but i can't download that because i can't save it to my hardrive. I can't save anything files from the internet to my hard drive. When i click on a file to download i get a window, but it doesn't let me save the file to my hard drive, the is a normal window like when you open up my computer, that is like the same window that i get, there is no save as, or save button, i can't choose the file type or anything, it opens a window that says desktop, which is not suppose to happen, it is suppose to be a different downloading window, a window where i can click save or change the file type or something. Please help me solve my problem. Thank You!
