Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

- Very similar to the original "Downloads Overwrite Existing Files". This one includes a bug fix so it will remember your previous download folder, rather than default back to your default download folder.

- Microsoft Edge Addon: https://microsoftedge.microsoft.com/addons/detail/dfnblaebmpjlokbkadgeaghajajidojj

- See source code here: https://github.com/zach-adams/downloads-overwrite-already-existing-files

- I am not responsible for lost/overwritten data. This does not compare the contents of files or the file modification time before overwriting, it only compares filenames.

THANK YOU. I was going absolutely ^%$( insane with the default behavior. I'm newer to Chromium and I'm using the Edge Beta which is exactly that. Now if I could run full screen naivety along with the URL bar and tabs without seeing that stupid X slide down when I go up to the top of the screen I think I will do okay. Why does Google hate such simple conveniences? Why do both Firefox/Mozilla and Edge/Microsoft keep pushing to simply follow their lead and decide if Google didn't care then they shouldn't care

YES! This solved a problem I had with Explorer, now with Chrome. 4 days working with IT and a simple google search brought me to Zach's add-in which is EXACTLY what I was looking for. My Excel Macro template can now work with Chrome exported reports same as it used to. Goodbye MS Explorer!
