I always go in to the options and tell it to "always ask" before downloading so I can choose. You can also set whatever default you want if you prefer that.

One example OK?What happened to that file I downloaded?On Apr 29, 2013, at 7:50 PM, Tony <tdale@xtra.co.nz> wrote:Do you have an example David (not trolling).Windows has foibles, but I don't see any real issues with doing things. You can do things by the standard menu, etc, etc, but you can also do many things quick. Websites are big for me. I right click the IE or FF icon on my taskbar and I then click what I want under Pinned or Recent, nice and quick. Havent been on my inherited iMac for a while but I found that quick website access not there. Having said that, I have little doubt it is there in another form.Usability in Windows 7 I find excellent, the foibles I hate, such as registry, slowdowns after a period, apps being everywhere on my hard drive. MacOS having apps generally in one place, one folder? Wow, nice. Or you could have them in a number of system folders, and sharing system files, no way.From: David Smith <david.smith.14916@gmail.com>

Problem, maybe, is that Windows requires so much counterintuitive learning that a typical user's reaction may be, "I don't want to through that all over again!".--david@luda.netpad4On Apr 28, 2013, at 4:04 PM, "David H.

I agree that Win7 was the most stable windows up to that point. Win8 is just as stable, at least on my computer. I wouldn't try to convince anybody who is happy with Win7 that they should run out and get Win8. I'm just trying to be a voice crying in the wilderness for those who are avoiding Win8 on purpose, that it's nothing to run away from. It's an incremental improvement over Win7 -- if people feel better moving only to Win7, great, but from my experience all the naysayers about doom and gloom about Win8 were wrong, so I just want people to know that there's at least one very satisfied Win8 user out here.. :-) David H.
