Windows 10: Downloading on Windows10

I removed W10 and reinstalled my W7 after I was frustrated that I could not select the download button on sites, as I have always done before with my W7 and then could not see the "Save As" drop down box to select which file I wanted to save the download to and I could not even overwrite the title of the download, instead it had an alpha numeric file name as a default and I could not change it to the proper film clip name or one of my own choice.

This is one of the most common reasons I use my PC and was very annoyed that I could not get the downloads to work from various sites, as I have previously done with W7 and previous versions. I am now back using W7 but would install W10 again, if I could get round this problem. Any suggestions ?

Hi Andre,

Running wsreset.exe seems to have done the trick. All is good. Thanks!

 

Downloading Fitbit app on windows10 problem

Hi,

Just got back home. I'm running windows 10 home version 10.0.14393. Troubleshooters returns Windows Store Cache may be damaged but was unable to auto fix.

After trying wsreset.exe clicking install goes to downloading status now but seems stuck at .10 KB of 273.7 KB. Will give it some time and post back if it fails again.

 

Hello Brisser, and welcome to Ten Forums. *Smile

It sounds like you are using Microsoft Edge??

If so, then you could use Internet Explorer instead if you like. Start -> All apps -> Windows Accessories -> Internet Explorer

thank you. I reinstalled W10 and used explorer instead of edge and now I can download like I used to.
