Preferences
Config Editor says:
messenger.save.dir	C:\Users\User name\Desktop
or
messenger.save.dir	C:\Users\User name\Desktop\hold

So this keeps up correctly with last manually selected folder, but it is used by default regardless of whether you select :
Preferences > Attachments > Incoming
Select: 'Save files to and select eg: 'Desktop' - note it can be any folder.
OR
Select:  'Always ask me where to save files'

Test:
Select: 'Save files to and click on 'Browse' and choosing another folder eg:  C:\Users\User name\Desktop\Test doc dump
But this is never auto selected until I manually select it when it will update :
messenger.save.dir	C:\Users\User name\Desktop\test doc dump
and then that folder is offered but I still have to use 'Save' or 'Select Folder' before any saving is performed - there is no auto saving.

It is as if the Preferences > General  > Files & Attachments - Select: 'Save files to'  for auto saving no longer has any functionality because there is only a 'Save as' option when saving attachments.
