Hi,
it's the new download experience in Microsoft Edge. Chrome is from another company and a different browser.
you have more options in Edge settings: edge://settings/downloads
you can learn more about the new experience here:

if you have suggestions on how to Improve Edge's download experience, you can send it using the feedback button on Edge. (shortcut: Alt + Shift + i), that way Edge developers will be able to see them and take them into account.

Hi,
Got your point and read this article.About browsers, I know that Chrome is, not only a different browser, but also produced by other company.
Used that browser as example to explain the mechanism. Would like to check if there is any option that I can use Edge download prompt same as older versions.
To tell the truth, I don't understand why I need to do two steps more if I have been selecting Ask me to save file on options list.
Why I have to confirm where I want to save the file if I have set this option on Edge's config?- HotCakeXApr 22, 2021MVPYou can use the browser's feedback button to suggest any changes you want to see,
press Edge's (...) menu button => Help and feedback => Send feedback
that way developers will receive your feedback and consider it- jhofferreiraApr 22, 2021Copper ContributorGreat,
I Will follow your advice.
Thank you so much!
