Hello all,

Probably might seem like a dumb question, but I have searched and tried everything I could find.

I have a Galaxy A12, running Android 12. I have a high capacity microSD card in it, where I store lots or stuff.

For the life of me I cannot find a way to set the download folder on said SD card as the default location to which to download.

I cannot find anywhere in the OS settings, and I have searched and searched and looked online. I could not even get a setting in Firefox whereby I could establish this preference. One article stated you need to go into about:config … well, that is just blank.

For bleeps sake I was able to do this on my goddamn pocket PC in the year 2000 with two freaking taps on the screen. How the hell have they gone out of their way to devolve some fundamental concepts??

Anyway, my ranting notwithstanding, I am hoping to be delightfully abashed when someone points to some obvious thing I managed to overlook. But it’s not seeming likely.

Please help :-@
