The location of the temporary download folders is as follows:
Windows
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Temp\tmwXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Linux/Mac
/tmp/tmwXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Where the X's are random numbers. Each installation session generates a different folder here. This location differs from earlier releases which would put files into the $downloads\MathWorks\ folder.
