Issue 3097: Downloads folder path is not language independent.
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=3097
Comment #2 by [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Somehow, I was under the impression that MS IE on Windows XP stores
downloaded files
in a directory (whose name is different depending on the UI language of
Windows)
under 'My Documents' (whose name is also different on different language
version of
Windows XP, but there's a Windows API to retrieve its name so that it's not
a
concern). Still, there's no Windows API to retrieve the name for download
on Windows
XP. That means, we have no way to figure out the name of that download
folder on
different language version of Win XP unless we hardcode {Win UI language =>
Download
folder name} in Chrome.
It turned out (Xiaolu checked different language versions of Win XP) that
MS IE just
stores downloaded files on Desktop. In that case, we can simply
use 'Download' in 'My
Documents' folder without localizing as reported originally.
I'll make a change tomorrow.
In case of Vista, the download folder name depends on the UI language and
there's an
API to retrieve the name. So, there's no problem with that.
