Outlook Express "Save To"folder

[GreenGiant]

I receave a lot of pics that I need to save with my email. How can I change the "Save To" folder to remember the last folder that I saved to?
It use to remember the last folder that was saved to now it defaults to "My Documents" folder every time.

Thanks

You need to modify your Folder Association for the specific file type, .jpg, .gif etc. in terms of how it handles a download request.

This explains the process in reference to IE, but the same steps are applied for Outlook as well:

See if these help you.

You may be able to use this fix. Before you edit your Registry backup (Export) any Key before making a change.

If you don't mind an extra mouse click you could use this procedure in XP too, it relates to creating/amending a "Places Bar" that you see on the left of most "Save To" Explorer windows.
