This might be a bit late, but I found I way to do this...
Close
Viber.exe(you know, right-click on viber icon in tray and exit :) )Go to the settings folder of viber
c:Users<user-name>AppDataRoamingViberPC<your_number>
note: This is the folder with the Viber Settings (there is another one ...AppDataLocalViber - this is Viber's install folder
Locate the
viber.dbfileOpen it with SqLite and open the
Settingstable
Change the
DownloadFolderin the database - like on this picture
note: For some reason, when you right-click on an image and select open in folder, the folder doesn't show up in explorer, but you can left-click on the image (view it) and you can open the folder from your photo viewer.
