Luckily, you also have an option to download the file in case you want to save the file in your local storage. Once you enable the toggle, clicking on an Office file will open a new tab where you’ll be able to see the file and won’t start downloading as the Edge Stable does. The new toggle is currently available in the Canary channel, meaning the Stable and Beta users cannot use the feature as of now. To do so, open Windows Defender Security Center, click App & browser control and choose Warn for SmartScreen for Microsoft Edge.In an effort to give Edge users the ability to open Office files without having to download them, Microsoft has added a new toggle, enabling which will let users open presentations, spreadsheets, documents within Edge. You'll be able to click through the warning and override SmartScreen's concerns and download the file. In Windows Defender, you can also change Edge's SmartScreen to merely warn you when you are about to download a file it deems suspicious instead of it outright blocking it. And, of course, only turn it off to download files you know to be safe. With SmartScreen off, you are on your own about which files to download in Edge, but I would urge you to go back and toggle SmartScreen on when you have finished downloading your file. Scroll down to the bottom of Advanced Settings and toggle off Help protect me from malicious sites and downloads with Windows Defender SmartScreen.
Scroll down to the bottom of Settings and click View Advanced Settings.Scroll down to the bottom of the right-hand panel and click Settings.Open Edge and click the triple-dot button in in the upper-right.Here's how to toggle SmartScreen off and on in Edge: You can disable SmartScreen in the Windows Defender Security Center app in total or just for Edge, but for the latter it's faster to do so right within Edge itself, particularly if you are already using Edge. I don't recommend turning SmartScreen off completely because it is helpful in preventing you from downloading a malicious file or app, but you can disable it in Microsoft's Edge browser if you want to override its protection and go ahead and download a file it doesn't recognize. On some occasions, however, you may find SmartScreen overstepping its bounds and blocking you from downloading a file you know to be safe. One of the ways Windows Defender keeps your computer safe from internet evils is by employing its SmartScreen tool to keep you from downloading potentially harmful files or visiting malicious sites.
