How do I change the Folder path of a downloaded file?

I use Firefox and I installed this add-on called Easy Youtube Video Downloader 1.1 . It works fine, but the file I downloaded (MP4) went to my AppData folder. I want to change the Folder path to something that is easier to access. So how do I change the Folder path for those particular files I downloaded off Youtube?

I just went to the site and looked at the screenshot off it, dood its pretty self expansionary, All u have to do is change the "Save As" location to wherever u want it to go on your HDD.

Well, first I don't have that window option. Second, I wanted to know how to do it using Vista.

Hello PaC,

Welcome to the Vista Forums.

The save location is decided by the program doing the downloading and not by Vista. If you don't have that option I would suggest downloading ver. 2.1.

alright thanks. At least that part is cleared up.
And also, Crispy2007, I just realized why I don't have that window option. It's from a different program.
You got it off here apparently: Easy Video Downloader - Download quality video from YouTube, Google Video, MySpace, save as AVI, MP4 (iPod, PSP)
While I got mine off here: Megaleecher.Net | Making technology work for you...
