Currently the setup.exe gets downloaded into the subfolder of the
%LOCALAPPDATA%.

Now, by default my antivirus software disallows execution of any files
from this location for security purposes.

It would be very useful to have an ability to change the default
download directory
because then it could be pointed at a "trusted" directory.

Hope this makes sense.

Thank you for your suggestion.
As I'm currently pretty busy and don't have access to my development
system, please don't expect an update within the next few weeks. But
changing default download folder is definitely on the list for the
next release of Chromium Updater.

Martin,

Thank you for the prompt response.
I understand the OSS development cycle and don't expect miracles =)
I am looking forward to the next release.
