How do you use mklink to make PDF Files when downloaded go to a certain directory.
I want only that file type to go to a directory in my documents folder called PDF
So each time i download a PDF File with say chrome broswer it will download to the set directory for that file type.
I already have installed
Downloads Router
But cant work out the MKLink required
I want it to work with PDF Files to the folder of choice Download Router configured for applications/pdf the example below is for mpegs but i want it for pdfs to go to a certain directory
Open the command prompt (cmd.exe) as Administrator Search for cmd in the start menu, right-click and choose 'Run as Administrator' Create the symbolic link: mklink /D TARGET LINK Substitute TARGET for the link name within Downloads, and LINK to your desired download destination Example: mklink /D "C:\Users\MyName\Downloads\Music" "D:\Music" Configure Downloads Router, setting your Destination folder to TARGET. Example: Filetype (MIME) = audio/mpeg, Destination folder = Music/
Thank you

Are you following a guide explaining how this is to be set up? – music2myear – 2019-06-25T22:24:03.007
Yes but i cant work it out.. I did the Downloads Router part but it requires that you do the MKlink for the pdf files to go to a directory of choice – Raven – 2019-06-27T11:28:13.703
