    Hi,

    You need to go to your browser settings and check under the downloads section as to where your default location is for downloaded files. Once you know the location you can you use aqFileSystem.FindFiles(path,filename) to look for your downloaded file. In your filename you can check the extension type so if you've downloaded an excel file you can have your filename parameter as "myfile.xlsx".

    Hope this helps ^.^
