Feature Request: Add Delete option to Downloads
Sometimes you click a download link by accident and something you didn't want gets downloaded. Instead of just clicking 'Show in folder', then deleting from File Explorer, it would be great if a new option 'Delete' were added to the menu.
- the button better be in here: edge://downloads/ and Not at the bottom of the Edge's window next to the show in folder option. it's gonna be painful if you accidentally click on the delete.
HotCakeX I think it needs to be in both places. I don't want to have to go to edge://downloads to do this for a one off file that was accidentally downloaded; I'd rather just click that file in the window and quickly get rid of it. I would image an "Are you sure" prompt could/should be added to any delete action to mitigate your valid accidental delete concern. I really like the suggestion of adding a delete to all downloads via edge://downloads; this should be a one-stop place for stuff like that.
- You say one off file right? that doesn't sound like something that happens all the time, so opening the dedicated downloads page wouldn't take too much time.
bonus tip: it takes 2 clicks to go there. ( Ctrl + J for shortcut )
