I use a download manager that segregates downloads into separate folders by file type. In my Downloads folder I have subfolders for - Compressed, Ebooks, Music, Other, Software and Video.
The program I use is called Free Download Manager, I've been using it for years so whether I would choose it today is unknown. Search for Download Manager <your operating system>. Among other things (and this is not unique) it runs as a separate process, so if the browser crashes or I want to exit the browser then active downloads continue.
The attachment shows an example of how I have separate folders for different file types.

Thank you for your response. I went back to the auto add tab and actually added the folder (before I hadn't since I didn't want those files to be deleted in case it took all the files - not just the epubs) and restarted it and it worked. I guess that folder/path needs to be put in on that one tab. I don't think it works when adding the folder manually (to differentiate between specific files).
I'll have to look into that program which separates the download files but since I figured out that auto add feature I may not have to worry about it since it worked.
Thank you so much for your help, I really appreciate it!
It would be a nice feature though down the road to be able to differentiate files Calibre grabs within a folder when manually adding book files (if you don't want to use the auto add feature or already have a folder it auto adds from).
