I want to save all the files of a specific source folder in chrome to a local folder, I found this but it seems can't do the job, I know I could save the file one by one, but since there are various files, mistake could happen and it's not boring to save one by one , so I want to know is there any way that I could save a folder to a local folder?
Thanks

I want to save an image in angular's Assert folder or in a folder created by me. I occupy the input file and a button, nothing more when I save the selected image, I want it to be uploaded or copied to said folders or folder. Can this be done without the backend?
I have been looking for information and watching videos but most of them either use firebase or some other service, I just want it locally. Please, your help would help me a lot.
If I understand your question correctly, you are asking if, at runtime, you can create a file in your Angular applications' 'assets' folder.
This is not possible, because the 'assets' folder is a compile-time artifact. It only exists in your source code tree. In the compiled application, the assets folder does not exist.
Furthermore, when the folder exists, it only does so on the computer on which you wrote the application. The user is running it in their web browser, which is generally running on their computer, not yours.
Now, if you are just asking if you can save a file on the user's computer, take a look at File Save functionality in Angular
I frequently have to reopen files from a link, or find it somewhere on the downloads folder. It is not that important and far too many downloads to properly save and sort them for when I will or will not need later.
So is there a way to simply make firefox (or chrome) open the already downloaded file instead downloading it again ?
The website is: https://dgriffinchess.wordpress.com/
I already downloaded the entire website, but I'd also like to have the pdf files, and yes, I've tried this, this and this answer, and unless wget saves the pdf files other than the main site folder(the one at the Home directory), I don't see them downloading at all..(I don't wait until the command finishes, I just wait for a few minutes and see that no pdf file has been downloaded yet, and considering that there is one almost on every webpage, I conclude that the pdf's aren't getting downloaded)
I don't really care if I have to re-download the entire website again, it's not that big to begin with, what matters most to me are the .pdf files, which doesn't seem to download in any way..
Many thanks in advance
The PDF files are stored on another domain, dgriffinchess.files.wordpress.com.
To completely download this website along with the PDF files, you need to authorize the domain name where the PDF files are stored using --span-hosts and --domains=domain_a,domain_b:
wget --recursive --page-requisites --convert-links --span-hosts --domains=dgriffinchess.wordpress.com,dgriffinchess.files.wordpress.com https://dgriffinchess.wordpress.com/
Really, there is no way to move a file or folder using the DriveApp class?
From what I could gather on the docs and on the StackOverflow answered questions all proposed implementations seem to copy the file to another location and then delete the original file. That would result in at least two problems:
File/folder having a different folderId on the destination;
File/folder being duplicated and stored indefinitely on Google Vault by retention policy.
I must be doing something wrong. Why is there not a method to simply move the file/folder to another destination (as provided by the Drive Web UI)?
Thanks,
When it comes to moving files with DriveApp, you need to work from the Folder rather than the File.
Open the folder you want to move the file to and use the "addFile(file)" method to add the file to that folder, then open the folder you want to move the file from and use "removeFile(file)" to remove it.
This might seem a bit clunky but it's actually possible to have a file in more than one folder at a time on Drive. The folders are really just labels. When considering a file that is already in multiple folders, the meaning of "moving" it to a new folder is kind of ambiguous, it's really a matter of adding/removing it from folders.

Stumbled across this post (two years & 6 months later) and just wanted to point out that its now possible to do this:
DriveApp.getFileById(myFileId).moveTo(DriveApp.getFolderById(myTargetFolderId));
I have a folder on my desktop and i want to convert it into a .zip file. It shouldnt ask me were to save it but just save it straight to my desktop or any folder i specified.
I tried ASZip, fZip etc. but i can't get it to work. There isn't any of them that seem to let me just add a folder and zip it.
I was only able to create a byteArray wit ASZip but when i saved it, it left me with a file that was not able to be opened.
Would it be possible to achieve what i want without the use of an external library?
Any help would be appreciated.
You can't actually zip a folder but you can zip all the contents inside the folder. You would have to use FileReferenceList to load in flash all the files inside the folder.
FileReferenceList allows you to have multiple selection in the browse window.
Then you would have to pass all these files to the zip managing library and get a ByteArray from it.
This byte array you would localy dump inside a "yourFileName.zip" by using FileReference.save().
The application cannot save the file to a predetermined location. The user has to pick the location using the "save to" prompt.
