I searched quite a lot for an answer on the web and found nothing.
Is there a way to get the download path of a browser via Javascript?
I don’t want to set the path myself i just wanna know where my file goes after been downloaded by the user.
That is not possible.
Pure browser-JavaScript is not be able to get information about the user’s filesystem. The default download path might also contain sensible information, which is risky:
Imagine that one stores his downloads at
C:\CompanyName\RealName\PhoneNumber\Adress\.
