To start, if you’re on a page and start a download, you’re likely used to seeing something like this: An odd oversight, really.īefore you panic and switch back to Firefox, however, there is a way to get to the Downloads area. Apple Safari has one, but if you’re downloading a big file in Microsoft Edge and you close the tab from which you started the download, well, then you’ve got a problem because there’s no indication whether the download is continuing or when it’s done. I never really thought about it, but you’re exactly right that the new Web Browser called Microsoft Edge that’s included with Windows 10 and 10.1 is missing a downloads shortcut or progress button of some sort.
