    Title says it all - where does NA temporarily store the downloading file before it installs and deletes it (on a Mac)?

    Thanks

    Thanks, but that's not what I meant. Not the download location (for apps/plugins/content, etc) but I mean the 'temporary' / invisible location where it downloads to before it performs the installation and then trashes the downloads. I want to 'catch' the updates before they're updated and trashed.

    Same place, you set a download folder location. I have a temp one on a standard HDD (not my SSD)
    This is different to the "install location"

    Sure? I see all downloading files, copy them before deleting. I changed the folder - and I can see files there. What about hidden files settings? Do you see hidden files?
