Hi, I have recently Reset my pc and I have noticed that my downloads instead of showing at the bottom of the screen (where it shows the name of recent downloads and 3 dots next to each download to cancel the download or open the file location, etc) pop up at the top near my extensions and I would like to make it so that they show at the bottom of the screen

    Hi i would just like to say that the option for the download bar being on the bottom or the top right should of just been an option to what someone would prefer more because having the top download thing makes it feel more like i am using Opera and i prefer to have the download bar on the bottom which i feel for this update to be in a poor execution which because of this update and the way this feature was changed almost makes me want to go back to using Chrome itself and i am pretty sure because of this that there is a lot of people that feels the same which for the future it should be what the people would like in their browser not what you would think they would like and then get hundreds to thousand of complaints about it.

    Does Microsoft ever consider the wishes of their clients?

    Hi Dave,

    Is there any difference for version 90.0.818.49 (Official build) (64-bit) ?

    The new top-right spot for the downloads is really inconvenient for me with basically everything I do in the browser, just checking to see if anything has changed in the settings I'm not immediately seeing, for an option to switch it.

    Thanks!

    Hi panvvan

    I am Dave, an Independent Advisor, I will help you with this . . .

    Currently, in that version of Edge, there is no setting to move the downloads display back to the bottom bar in Edge, the best option is open the Feedback Panel in Edge (Alt + Shift + i) and provide feedback to the developers there, to ask them to make this an option in a future update . .

    Hi panvvan

    Your version of Edge is fully up to date, this is a new problem that many people are reporting in Edge, they have moved the Downloads to the top right of the screen, that is why it is best to report this on the Feedback panel, so the Edge developers will see the feedback, the more people that do that the more likely, they will give us the choice to have that on the bottom bar again . . .
