Edge painfully slow to load save file and download dialog box
Hello having issues last few days with dialog box appearing super slow when saving images or any file. No issues in Firefox or Chrome, cleared all my data, cookies, cache. Thanks
Hello everyone, I don't know if this issue is still happening for a lot of people, but it happened with me yesterday and I just found out today what is causing it.
If you go to Edge settings and search for Download, look for the option called: Microsoft Defender SmartScreen and if it's on, toggle it off. This option is what was making my Edge take too long to start new downloads.
I hope this was helpful to someone.
