Make Illustrator remember where you last exported to.

[Guest]

Hi,

I am a Wikipedian and have a simple workflow, place png logo, vectorise, save "ai" file, then export as SVG. I've noticed that, despite the AI file automatically opening the last folder I save a file to, which is what I want, when I do that with the "export as" for SVG, it goes by default to my download folder. Is there any way I can make it go to the last folder I saved to?

Record an Action to export as SVG, when you play it, it will save all files to the folder you used when the action was recorded.
