Download File from IE11 + Create a folder to store it - html

Question

I had lots of issues dealing with that IE 11 download bar when downloading a file.
I checked different solutions but the only way to make it work the most reliably possible was to put two of them together.
Then I set the default internet download folder as my Desktop so that whenever I download a file with SendKeys I know where to find it with the code.
For the little story, my code is downloading the attached files for all the different incident cases. The number/type of attachments can vary and to oragnize it a little bit I decided to create a folder with the name of the incident case and store the attachments inside.

Answer 1

So here is my code, if you see a part which could be improved let me know :)
