I want to download a file to a specific folder. I’m using WebClient.DownloadFile, but what I would like is to let the user select where this file would be saved, not just download it into any folder.

How can I do this?

    The folder that the user would download the file to would depend on their browser, and system settings.

    All you can do is provide the file to download, and it would be up to them (and their browser) to select a local folder (on their system).

    If you want to control that process, you would have to use an embedded plugin like Java, Silverlight, Flash, etc.
