change the download directory without the popup window at chrome

I am using Selenium and Java to write tests for Chrome browser. At some point i need to download a file and I need to change the directory that file is gonna be downloaded to. the problem is that when I use the code snippet below it opens the popup window and I don't want it:

String downloadFilepath = "download";
HashMap<String, Object> chromePrefs = new HashMap<String, Object>();
chromePrefs.put("download.default_directory", downloadFilepath);
options.setExperimentalOption("prefs", chromePrefs);

Can you try this?

String downloadFilepath = "download";
 Map<String, Object> prefs = new HashMap<String, Object>();
 prefs.put("download.default_directory", downloadFilepath);
 DesiredCapabilities caps = DesiredCapabilities.chrome();
 ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
 options.setExperimentalOption("prefs", prefs);
 caps.setCapability(ChromeOptions.CAPABILITY, options);
