How to save PDF file to my laptop

Anonymous

I cannot find a Save AS function when I try to download a PDF file to my Windows 365 laptop. The Google help and AI instructions claim you can Save As under File, but again I cannot find the document either on my desk top or in My Drive. I have also tried converting PDF file to DocX and Doc, but unable to find Save As so I can send the doc to a specific folder!!

Please help...thanks!

Download from where? If a web site does it not open in Edge/Your default browser, if so you 'print it' to the desired folder using 'Microsoft Print to pdf'
