default "Save To" directory - can it be "Last used"?

I feel a little frustrate about the Default Downloading Destination.

I have Windows 7 and installed FlashGet 3.7 for IE 9 and FlashGot 1.4.5 for Firefox 12.0. The default "Save To" folder is C:\downloads.
While many or most times I do not want to use that folder or a specific directory to be my default destination. I hope it can be the "Last Used" one.
So I tried to make the setting. I go to Options, Task Manager, Task Default, can see there is Category and destination folder setting. But even when I select "Last used", it seems not for the default download folder setting, but not for category? Anyway, I tested back and forth many times, it simply doesn't work for me.

Wondering is there is any chance that the default "Save To" directory can be the one Last Used?

Much Appreciate!

I suppose you should bring this to FlashGet developers or change your default download manager, because the destination directory is controlled by the download manager rather than by FlashGot (with very few exceptions, like non-graphical products and the built-in Firefox downloader).

Tools | Options | General -> Downloads, change from Save files to, to Always ask me where to save files, & that should then remember your last used directory.
