[QUOTE="Lenny_Fox, post: 858874, member: 82776"] I edited my Chrome vs Edge privacy & security post I had submitted to Microsoft that the Site Permission "ask / block file edit" was missing. Last Thursday I received a mail (but my ISP decided it was SPAM, that is why I had not noticed it) that they combined this Site Permission with the Downloads setting. When you disable the "Ask where to save each file before downloading" Chromium-edge sets the "file editing" site permission to deny automatically. So the site-permission setting (in the user interface) is omitted, not the protection You can check it your self by trying to save a website page or a settings file of an extension outside your downloads folder. You get an "File not found" error (because Edge does not grants file write permission to that folder). (y)(y)(y) [/QUOTE]
