I accidently un-checked this box when downloading a compressed (.zip) file.
Now IE8 automatically downloads this to the temporary internet files
directory.

I want to reset this value, but none of the solutions I have founf appear to
be valid for Vista 64. There is no
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell \AttachmentExecute\
location in the registry.

I would like to reset this to prompt me for Save-Run dialogue box

Hello Joe

I believe that resetting Internet Explorer may be able to reset tha
setting as well
