MSEdge 149.0.4022.62 download experience is suboptimal.
Have Edge.
Click file to download, see download window appear with following:
Download appears stuck, not moving at all.
Close download window
See icon change:
Click Icon to open download window again
Now see:
Conclusion: I think Microsoft rigorously broke the download experience in Edge and now my users are mass complaining about it.
Others were complaining about it in this thread too but the OP of that thread complained about a different issue.
EDIT:
You can't reproduce this downloading .exe(cutables) and .md files, it just does.
I tried this with .eml, .msg, .ps1 files then this behaviour as shown as above happens.
This is a bug. A fix for it is rolling out in the next day or so.
Do you happen to have a source?
From the horses mouth. I’m on the Edge team lol.
does the .69 build that just showed up fix it?
That was the build we were targeting, but I’ll need to verify.
Verified it was in today’s build.
