[QUOTE="mrplow, post: 1516066, member: 38928"] Downloading to the desktop, the downloads folder or a.n.other folder, the location doesn't matter. As to whether you can delete things in the downloads folder, only you can answer that. If you have no further need for them, delete them. If there are any you're unsure of create a new folder called maybe "query deletions" set yourself a reminder to delete the folder in x number of days so that you will see if anything tries to use the files. In general though a good workflow is to download a file use it for it's intended purpose then file it somewhere permanently or delete it. [/QUOTE]
