2 TopicsGeolocation wrong (really wrong) in Edge but correct in Chrome
This is probably a Windows 10 API problem not an Edge issue, but geolocation is wrong - usually really, really wrong - in Edge... while Chrome gets my location dead-on. On the same computer. At the same time. Before we get into any 101 fixes - I deal with location tech in my job, and I know W10 well enough to know how to correctly configure my country, and clear my location. This is a problem that exists on fresh installs of W10 and Edge. I can send some screenshots to engineers who may be lurking. The distance off is around 500 miles or so. It is locating me in a place that I've never visited. This has been a problem for years and a few (Google) searches shows that it pops up in the Feedback Hub, the user forums and other places every now and then, with no fix. I really want to use Edge. But correct geolocation is so fundamental to everything associated with search-based services today, and it gets old getting recommendations to walk down the street to a store that is 500 miles away.34KViews4likes16CommentsLet us Choose Download Location For each File Type separately in Edge insider browser
Here are the file types Edge insider browser currently recognizes in downloads My suggestion is to let us choose a separate Download location for each file type. Because: I usually download games or movies (compressed files for games and video files for movies/series) that are big (>10GB) and in multiple parts. I want them to be saved on somewhere else other than C drive, such as my HDD drive for archieve. I want PDF files to be automatically saved in Documents folder/PDF. I want downloaded Image file be saved in my OneDrive/Pictures folder so they get automatically synced and uploaded to my OneDrive cloud space. I want Audio files be saved in a Different folder where my music player program and Spotify watch those folders for music files (MP3, AAC etc). I want unknown files (files with extensions other than those mentioned above) to be saved in the default download location so I can decide what to do with them later. I want .exe files (programs) to be automatically saved in a different partition where the rest of my programs are. And so on. there is currently one global download location having to choose a download location and browse for a folder for each of them every time is not convenient, so, Please Let us Choose Download Location For each File Type separately in Edge insider browser. also let Edge insider Sync these download location settings with cloud so Users won't have to apply all of these modifications Again after reinstalling browser or OS change, etc. Thanks6.5KViews16likes5Comments
