Hi
@nordine vandezande.
The default download folder path
%localappdata%\IBM Robotic Process Automation\downloads
is intended. The user that
webStart
loads does not track navigation history, like cookies and visited sites.
You can use the
webWaitDownload
command to move the file from the default download folder path to a new path. Indeed,
webWaitDownload
moves the file even if a destination folder is not provided, defaulting to the
Desktop
folder.

Subject: Change download folder
Hi
I am using Chrome (webStart --name ISO --type "Chrome") for an automation that needs to download a file (webNavigate --url "http://whatever/download").
No problem with that but I noticed that a Chrome instance initiated by IBM RPA is using a different download location (C:\Users\whatever\AppData\Local\IBM Robotic Process Automation\downloads) compared to running Chrome directly.
Is it possible to change the location IBM RPA uses?
