■ Even if you download a folder that contains subfolders the first time, you
can download single subfolders or files from the folder at a later time, and
the system remembers the most recent directory path you provided.
■ If the local directory path changes, you can establish a new path the first
time you update items from your local computer. Just drag and drop the
items from your local computer to your site.
■ If you add new files to the folder that you've downloaded to your local
computer, they are automatically uploaded with the original content of
the folder when you update to your site.

You can easily download a project or standard folder and all of its contents
to your local computer, make changes to some (or all) of the downloaded files,
then upload the modified files by using the Update Project Documents wizard
(click the Update File toolbar button,
).
NOTE All files are automatically compressed when they are moved to your local
computer or to the site. You do not need to compress (ZIP) files, subfolders, or
folders. The exception is when AutoCAD is used to load a file from your site. In
this case, the file is moved by AutoCAD, hence it is not compressed.
To download a folder:
1 In the tree view, select a folder.
2 Right-click and choose Download. The Select Download Destination
dialog box is displayed.
3 Click Browse and navigate to a destination on your local computer.
4 NOTE The directory path you choose now becomes the Working Folder.
The next time you download the same path address will automatically appear
in the To: field. You can change the working folder at any time.
5 To include all the subfolders within the selected folder, select the
Include subfolders option.
