Tidy up Firefox downloads on your desktop.
      Tue May 13 2008 09:29 AM

Here's a really simple way I keep my desktop tidy.

When you download and save a file using Firefox, it saves the file onto the desktop.
If you don't delete these, your desktop can soon get cluttered.

To keep mine tidier, I created a Firefox Downloads folder.

Just right click on the desktop. Click New > Folder.
Name it Firefox Downloads.

Then open Firefox.
Choose, Tools, Options, Main
Look for "Save Files to" and click Browse
Then choose the folder you just created.

Now any downloads you make are stored in this folder and can be easily located, deleted or stored neatly.
