When you start a download in the new Edge currently, you will notice that it is either downloaded directly to the designated downloads folder or that a file browser window is opened to pick a folder for the download.
The response of the browser depends on the downloads setting. By default, files get downloaded automatically and without user prompt. Starting in Microsoft Edge 87, currently available on the Canary channel, Microsoft has changed the logic behind the browser's download behavior.
The default behavior has not changed; if you have not changed download settings, file downloads will happen automatically just as before. If you have enabled "Ask where to save each file before downloading" however, you will get the new download prompt instead of a file browser. The prompt, displayed at the bottom of the screen, lists "open" and "save as" options directly.
A click on the three dots next to the visible choices displays "save" and "cancel" options. Save as opens the file browser so that you can pick a local folder for the download. Save on the other hand places it in the default download folder as set in the Edge settings under Downloads.
Cancel stops the entire operation and deletes the temporary bits that were already downloaded. Open is a new option; Edge loads the file from a temporary folder in the default system app for the file extension. If there is none, a choice is displayed to the user. Microsoft has configured the browser to delete the temporary folder when a new browsing session is started. Another new feature in Edge 87 is the ability to delete downloads directly from within the browser UI.
Once downloaded, select the three dots next to the download and there the delete file option. Other options include opening the file, setting the file type to always open automatically, to open the folder it has been saved into, to copy the download link, or to report the download to Microsoft because you believe it is unsafe. Edge, like most Chromium-based browsers, starts the download immediately even if the user has not responded to the prompt.
I found that the hard way when I installed Edge some months ago, since it was irreversible, I was forced to migrate to a new Local Windows account and I uninstalled Edge right after.
When my Windows 10 gets the new Edge automatically through an update, I will not use it, when I reinstall Windows 10 in the future that comes with the new Edge, I will just use it to download whatever other browser that I use. Imagine if Microsoft had actually released a browser that respected privacy and only integrated as much as the user wanted — choices at least.
It does seem like a nice browser but yea, not with a ten foot pole as it is. I just think Microsoft did a total surrender in adopting Chromium as a web browser engine.
He at least was proud of Microsoft being a software company that knew how to build quality software. Today all Microsoft seems interested in is cloud, cloud and more cloud services. Windows is almost a legacy operating system and Microsoft spends more time marketing Azure these days. Abandoning its own browser engine just added another white flag that Microsoft has given up. The web is governed by network effects. With chromium you tap into them.
Today Browsers are simply a consumer facing frontend, since the technology for the backend is already there, free. They likewise dropped a lot of other sucky software when Steve Ballmer was still around. Sometimes companies have winners, sometimes they have losers. All browsers initiate the download regardless of whether you accept to save it or not. You can easily check this using the Windows Task Manager: pay attention to the lower right of this.
They removed the related setting in Firefox 63, two years ago. One can fully disable updates in Pale Moon, though. Open or Save File In Internet Explorer 10 and IE 11 Microsoft has hidden the option to automatically open files rather than prompting for you to open or save a file of that type each time you click on it.
Select the Save option. Right-click on the file In the options presented, make sure to un-check the option labeled: Always ask before opening this type of file From now on if you click on a file of that type, the file will bypass the automatic prompt and will open automatically.

Scripting your Batch File Create a new batch file for example: abc. If the path is not found, the an error level value of 1 will be returned note… a value of zero means the path was found. If an error level of 1 returns for the path, then we need to create a new registry entry to allow documents to be automatically opened. Use the Reg add command to create the new registry path and key values.
Now run the batch file as an administrator Open your registry again and make sure that your batch script has properly duplicated creation of the registry key that Internet Explorer automatically made for you in the above steps. If the registry entry looks good, then try clicking the link to the file type of your choosing in Internet Explorer.
