Hi:
I do not use Edge, but here is one suggested method (it dates from Aug 2015, but I presume the steps are still valid):
How to change the default Microsoft Edge download location - gHacks Tech NewsThe download folder can be changed in File Explorer, the former Windows Explorer, directly.
- Open File Explorer by clicking on the folder icon in the Windows Taskbar, or with the shortcut Windows-e.
- Locate the Download folder on the left side, right-click on it and select properties from the context menu.
- Switch to the location tab in the Downloads properties.
- There you find the current location listed. If you want to set a new folder without moving existing files, simply enter the new path, e.g. d:\downloads and hit apply afterwards.
- If you want all existing files to be moved, click on move instead, pick a new folder location, and select yes when the move folder prompt appears.
- Microsoft Edge will use the new folder for all downloads from that moment on.
