At the top of your Browser....>>>>

Tools > Options > General > Downloads > Save files to ...option: "Desktop"

This will show your File(s) on the Desktop, to carry out further operations...

Howdy,

Also to add to Paul's great idea, you can go to your Microsoft FSX main (root) folder and right click on it to "create a shortcut" which you can place on your desktop, so when you download addons, it makes it easier to access your FSX folders eh.............
