+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #224692 +++

Given by bug 224692 comment 92 the compression settings from the parent folder
aren't inherited when downloading a file. That happens because after the
download completes, the file is being moved from the download temp directory
and the compression properties aren't updated.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a folder on the same partition where the temp directory resists
2. Create a download folder and add the compression flag to the folder properties.
3. Download a file to that directory and see that it doesn't inherit the
setting.

Download file to the NTFS compressed or encrypted Downloads folder, the inherit works fine, with Fx4.0.1 on Win10 RS3.
