The new version of Microsoft Edge uses the "Downloads" folder as the default location to save documents, images, and files that you download from the internet.
Many features are easy to customize on the new Microsoft Edge Chromium browser – and it follows the same standards as other browsers. One such customization is the setting up of the default Downloads folder location to download the files using the browser. Even though a minor feature, it helps if you download on a daily basis. In this guide, we will be checking out how to change the default download location for the new Microsoft Edge.
Although using the default configuration is the logical location to store downloaded files, it doesn't mean that it's the best location for every installation. For example, if you have multiple hard drives, you may prefer to save downloads on the secondary storage because it has more space. Or maybe you download work files or personal images and want to avoid accidentally deleting them when freeing up space.
Whatever the reason it may be, the new Chromium version of Microsoft Edge includes an option to change the default location to store downloaded files on Windows 10.
