No need to play with your registry. Just go to settings on your browser and select where you want your downloads to go. In Chrome, open settings, at the bottom click 'Advanced Settings' and it's right there.

I like my files to go to the desktop as well... I've never liked opening folders to go look for something I just downloaded.
