Provide run / open / save / save as options when downloading files - Discussion
Hello everyone,
Thanks so much for all the feedback provided regarding Open/SaveAs. We are now introducing an option for users using Edge version 87.0.629.0 and above to choose, for each download, whether they want to Open, Save As, Save, or Cancel a download. To enable this option, navigate to edge://settings/downloads and enable, "Ask me what to do with each download." Once you download a file after enabling that setting, you will have the option to Open, Save As, Save, or Cancel it. If you choose to open it directly, it will be downloaded to a temporary folder.
Additionally, we have exposed an option to directly delete downloaded files from your computer, in the browser so that you can easily clean up after downloading your files without leaving the browser.
To learn more about these features, please check out our post.
When downloading the previous Edge shows time in hours and minutes remaining from the start to the end. New Edge only shows hours left first, then minutes only when it is ending.
Example a 2 hour 30 minute download will just be shown as 2 hours left, 1 hour left then mins till completed. Please show full actual downloading time like EdgeHTML, it would be great. Thank's !
