    Save as dialog behavior change with pathes


    I often download many files and documents and sort them to different folders.When I click on a file in Edge to download it, the "Save As" dialog opens.Now I paste the path into the filename field and press Return so the dialog changes the path to the folder I've pasted and the filename is restored and I press a second time Return to save the file.This works except in one case. If you paste the path the "Save As" dialog is already showing and press Return, the path is still in the field and doesn't change back to the filename you are downloading. This is very annoying as you have to check if yo

    How to make Open/Save Dialog default to Libraries?

    When I want to save a new file Windows 10 (Pro x64 21H2) generally opens the File Open/Save dialog to the last used directory, which is usually one of many on my NAS. However, instead of using the path I used to navigate to it (usually via a Libraries mapping) is uses the full path starting with //Network. This often results in a blown up tree in the navigation pane that I then have to collapse in several steps to see the Libraries entry. Is there some way to make the Open/Save dialog default instead to "Libraries"?

    Change "Save As" Dialog Box

    Hi MemeMasterKeku

    If you have 'Hidden Items' enabled in File Explorer, then hidden folders will be visible in the 'Save As' dialog

    There is no way to do that on the Save As' dialog, please provide feedback to Microsoft with this suggestion on the Feedback Hub (Windows Key + F), hopefully they will take this into consideration as the developers monitor that hub . .

    Alt+Up Arrow breaks Enter key behavior on Save As dialog

    When I'm asked to save a file in a dialog, I often don't use the mouse and hold Alt+Up Arrow in order to go up in the path tree until I reach the Desktop to save the file there and then press Enter.

    I've noticed that sometimes after you hold the Alt+Up Arrow combination, the Enter key doesn't work. Worst yet, if I give up and use the mouse to click on Save button, the command is ignored. The only workaround is to select a different folder, so the file
    will saved there (which it is not what I want).

    Any ideas how to fix this bug/bad behavior? That doesn't happen with Windows 7 or Widows 8.X.
