what i want is it to be installed in there but i dont what the user to have a choice i just what it to be installed there is that possible :) so when they click download it will download the file to that location
You can call My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile and, if you provide the appropriate arguments, it will display a progress dialogue as the file is downloaded. If you want to do it that way, please read the MSDN documentation for that method to learn what the appropriate arguments are.
If you want to provide your own progress then follow the CodeBank link in my signature and check out my Asynchronous File Download thread.
that sounds just what i would like to do but where do i find it on msdn i get confused on that site lmao can you provide a link if thats possible please :)
What am I, your servant? If you can't be bothered to type a few words into a search box then you can just do without the information. I'm here to help people learn but that doesn't include wiping noses and doing your web searches for you. That requires exactly zero programming knowledge and experience so you are just as capable of doing it as I am. If you try and fail then that's one thing but if you don't even try then you don't deserve to succeed.
