How do we make it so that it downloads to a specific folder without asking us to later on?

It throws me a permission error while it downloaded the map succesfully.

I've looked around and the only things i can find are:
1) The file is being used by something already, but the file is saved once the program has the entire file and once the file is opened by the default program (osu!) it's moved to the songs directory and unpackaged as all the files for the map. (what i guess happens. i could be wrong, but not too far off)
2) You or the user you are logged in as doesn't have permission to write to that directory. However, it looks like you were able to write one file there in the first place... I assume you're the owner of the computer and also have admin privileges. If not, try with the admin/owner of the computer.

I made a small script to check if you've got permission to write to a directory. You can paste it into a text file, make sure it has the .py extension, and the save type as "all files" to prevent it from making it a .txt file. If it passes, try the downloader again in the same folder.

And for anyone else who wants to try this, this is for python 3.x.

import tkinter, tkinter.filedialog, tkinter.messagebox, os
root = tkinter.Tk()
root.withdraw()
folder = tkinter.filedialog.askdirectory(parent=root, initialdir='/', title='Select folder to test read/write permissions.')

if os.access(folder, os.W_OK):
	if os.access(folder, os.R_OK):
		tkinter.messagebox.showinfo('Directory permission','You are allowed to read/write here.')
	else:
		tkinter.messagebox.showinfo('Directory permission','You are NOT allowed to write here.')
else:
	if os.access(folder, os.R_OK):
		tkinter.messagebox.showinfo('Directory permission','You are NOT allowed to read here.')
	else:
		tkinter.messagebox.showinfo('Directory permission','You are NOT allowed to read/write here.')

So this is maybe a bit far fetched but it would be awesome if you could make a program that runs in the background that downloads and updates all the maps. Maybe I should start programming something myself sometime :/ I only do web related stuff and it would be good to explore some different areas. If so in what language should I write it?
