    Download means to copy some data file from a remote computer to your PC. How you download depends on what you are downloading.

    Generally someone sends you a link to a file on the remote computer (usually a WEB server). You just click the link and your browser copies the file to your PC. You are usually given a choice first of what folder to download to. By default it would go to your Downloads folder.

    How you use the file once downloaded depends on the type of file.
