Edge Browser (new) - Dragging an image creates shortcut
I'm used to being able to drag an image from a website to my desktop (or open folder) to save it there directly. Lately I've noticed that doing this now creates a shortcut instead of saving the image...

MrTemp1680 Was same here! But It Fixed. 88.0.673.0.
Some front pages still don't support 'Image drag download' but, click it in and drag more large specific image, then I can drag download.
Maybe It could be completely fixed.
c.f. Chrome is free to Image drag download. If you have trouble then I suggest use chrome, before edge fixed.

it's fixed in Edge Dev Version 88.0.673.0 (Official build) dev (64-bit)
I just tried it.
if it's still having issue for you, use the feedback button to report it.
in the meantime you can always use the Stable verson of Edge that doesn't have these temporary problems.
