Save Target in MS Edge

Hi Catherine,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

I regret the inconvenience caused to you. Let me help you.

I am afraid to inform you that MS Edge don’t have ‘save target as’ option. I suggest you to use Internet Explorer for the same application.

I'm sorry to hear that Save Target As is not a function in Edge. With the proliferation of downloadable products, that is the most useful function in IE11 and certainly should have been included in Edge. I hope you'll pass on my comments to your design team.

Thank you for responding.

Well, I have today installed W10 and edited a website that has the facility for members to get files on a hyperlink using the 'save target as...' option. I can't believe that this new all singing and dancing EDGE does not have this option. So how is MS  going to promote EDGE if it takes away things that are better on IE?

Why not just use Internet Explorer?  It's still in Windows 10 and you can set it as your default, probably because Edge is a Browser in the relatively early stages of development when it comes to more 'advanced' features than those required for general Internet browsing.

Of the many alternatives available, my preferred choice would be Firefox because it tends to be more configurable than the other alternatives; and doesn't try to continually force the use of Google services on to its users.

You could also use Ctrl-j  to find out where your downloads would be going, open that, and then after the download copy it to wherever different you want it.  If you have a lot to go in the same place you could even change the location of  shell:downloads  temporarily.

Congratulations Microsoft on your giant leap backwards!  I was honestly surprised when I tried to save a simple txt file, and was only able to have it open in the browser.  I quickly went from surprised to just down right horrified.  No 'save target as' nor 'File... Save As'.  You guys really out did yourselves this time.

The only real solution here is to use any browser except edge.
