  1. Open Chrome
  2. Click on the three dots in the top-right corner
  3. Click Settings
  4. Click Downloads
  5. Switch "Ask where to save each file before downloading" to on
  6. From hereon out, whenever you go to download a file, a window will pop up asking where you'd like to save the file and what you want to title it.
