Set download directory

Configures the directory to use when downloading files. If you enable this policy, Microsoft Edge uses the provided directory regardless of whether the user specified one or chose to be prompted for download location every time. See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2095041 for a list of variables that can be used. If you disable or don't configure this policy, the default download directory is used, and the user can change it. If you set an invalid path, Microsoft Edge defaults to the user's default download directory. If the folder specified by the path doesn't exist, the download triggers a prompt that asks the user where they want to save their download. Example value: Linux-based OSes (including Mac): /home/${user_name}/Downloads Windows: C:\Users\${user_name}\Downloads
