save or run

so, i guess your one of the many people who is confused while downloading whether to select the "save" or "run" option,if so i am here to clarify it .


RUN
The word run means is simply to run as in simply to do the specified task. When u click the run option two successive tasks are involved
* the content ur downloading is first stored in "temporary internet folder" or else "temporary folder of windows".
*the file your downloading simply starts executing once the download has been completed. That is if its an .jpg file a picture file is opened .

*when you select the run option the downloaded file is going to be lost eventually as its in temporary folder.
*run can also mean OPEN WITH.
*the file runs as if the windows explorer navigated the download to the exact file type.


SAVE
Save simply means to write the file into your hard disk. The big difference is the file you ve downloaded is found in the folder which you ve specified.
*the big difference between save and run is in save the file is stored in a permanant location you choose to run,delete or jus keep it there., you can always make use of it in the future


WHEN TO USE SAVE
when you want to keep what ever you ve downloaded i mean u wish to run it or not but when you need it u should go for save.

WHEN TO USE RUN
when you need the "downloaded" only once, perhaps a video or a picture file only for one use you should go for "run".
