When using matlab_R2017a_win64.exe installer how does one get it to download to a folder other than C:\Users\<username>\Downloads?

My C drive partition is full so I am installing to D but it appears that the installer is first downloading to C before installing on D.

You can change the default download folder (C:\Users\<username>\Downloads) in web browser settings. If Chrome, this link will help you.

You can change the location to a folder in D drive. After matlab_R2017a_win64.exe is downloaded, run the exe file then downloaded files are unzipped in the same folder.
