 <p>You can't access the Downloads folder directly as - contrary to the Documents library - there's no special capability for this folder. </p> <p>You'll have to use a FileOpenPicker to let the user select a folder where they want to have their downloads stored. Then you can store the access token and use it for subsequent files. For more information on access tokens and the FileOpenPicker, see this article: <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/jj655411.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/jj655411.aspx</a></p> <p>Depending on your use case you may want to download the files into your applications localstorage folder and let the user copy or open them individually from within your app.</p>
