Clear instructions. Easy to follow. Save the file on your PC in the default download location. After Internet Explorer runs a security scan and finishes downloading the file, you can choose to open the file, the folder it's stored in, or view it in Download Manager.

Save as a different file name, type, or download location on your PC. Run the app, extension, or other file type. After Internet Explorer runs a security scan, the file will open and run on your PC. Cancel the download and go back to browsing the web. You can also save smaller files—like single pictures—to your PC. Right-select the picture, link, or file you want to save, and then choose Save picture or Save target as.

Download Manager keeps track of pictures, documents, and other files you download from the web. Files you've downloaded are automatically saved in the Downloads folder. You can always move downloads from the Downloads folder to other places on your PC. To view files you've downloaded while using Internet Explorer, open Internet Explorer, select the Tools button, and then select View downloads.

You'll be able to see what you've downloaded from the web, where these items are stored on your PC, and choose actions to take on your downloads.

Open Internet Explorer, select the Tools button, and then select View downloads. In the View Downloads dialog box, select Options in the lower-left. Choose a different default download location by selecting Browse and then selecting OK when you're done.

Internet Explorer uses add-ons such as Adobe Reader to view some files in the browser. If a file that needs an add-on won't open, you might have an older version of the add-on, which needs to be updated. With SmartScreen off, you are on your own about which files to download in Edge, but I would urge you to go back and toggle SmartScreen on when you have finished downloading your file.

And, of course, only turn it off to download files you know to be safe. In Windows Defender, you can also change Edge's SmartScreen to merely warn you when you are about to download a file it deems suspicious instead of it outright blocking it. You'll be able to click through the warning and override SmartScreen's concerns and download the file.

Be respectful, keep it civil and stay on topic.
