Hey all! I was wondering, when you download something, and you get that little dialog box that says, 'do you want to open or save this file'? And there's a checkbox by it that says always open this file or something like that? Well, I checked that box on open, and I really would like to just save stuff before I open it again. Is there a way to go back to where it shows the box and fix it?

If you remember what type of file it is, then great. Go to the control panel and select folder options. Then, find the filetypes page, and go to the filetype you want. Go to advanced options and uncheck the always open after download check box in there. Then click OK in there and click close when you get back to the filetype list.
