Even though the SETTING is for Chrome to download to a partition D, it instead puts downloads on the Desktop. How can the misbehaviour be stopped ?
-
You can delete the chrome and all the settings from registry and then try installing it again. Or try other browser, like firefox.
-
No need to remove and reinstall Chrome.
Do the following:
1) On your computer, open Chrome.
2) At the top right, click More More and then Settings.
3) At the bottom, click Advanced.
4) Under the "Downloads" section, adjust your download settings:
To change the default download location, click Change and select where you'd like your files to be saved.
If you'd rather choose a specific location for each download, check the box next to "Ask where to save each file before downloading."

And instead of just pointing at D create a Download folder on D...

Turns out that RESETTING Chrome was the solution.
