Solution 1

C#

string filename = Path.GetFileName(FileUploadControl.FileName);
           FileUploadControl.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("~/") + filename);
           StatusLabel.Text = "Upload status: File uploaded!";

With Server.MapPath you can get the path of the application.Futher you can place your uploaded fiels in any folder in your application
