在下载文件时，Web 浏览器通常是最常用的软件。这就是为什么管理下载必须简单直观，以便用户可以通过他们过去下载的文件轻松找到自己的方式。由于适用于Windows 8.1的(Windows 8.1)Internet Explorer 11应用程序是一个相对较新的 Web 浏览器，因此我们将与您分享您需要了解的有关在此浏览器中下载和管理已下载文件的所有信息。
Internet Explorer 应用程序(Internet Explorer App)中的下载(Download) 选项(Options)
在您要下载文件的网站上按下“下载”(Download) 按钮或链接后，会显示一个(button or link)对话框(dialog box)，询问您是否要运行、打开或保存文件。如果您正在下载可执行文件，您将看到Run而不是Open。如果您正在下载文档或存档，您将看到Open而不是Run。
选择这两个选项中的任何一个，都会使Internet Explorer 应用程序(Internet Explorer app)将文件下载到临时位置。下载完成后，文件将被打开或执行。
仅当需要打开/运行该文件一次时才应选择打开(Open)或运行(Run)，因为该文件不会显示在“下载(Downloads)”文件夹中，并且稍后会自动删除，因为它存储在临时位置。
但是，如果您单击或点击“保存(Save)”按钮，该文件将保存在“下载(Downloads)”文件夹中，并将显示在Internet Explorer应用程序的“(Internet Explorer)下载(Downloads)”部分中。这就是为什么我们建议您始终选择此选项。
每次下载文件时，浏览器都会执行安全检查(security check)，以确保您没有下载恶意文件。使用SmartScreen 过滤器(SmartScreen Filter)自动进行检查，然后使用您在计算机或设备上安装的(computer or device)默认防病毒软件(default antivirus)进行检查。
如果您在下载过程中离开(download process)浏览器窗口(browser window)，将会弹出一条通知，告诉您文件已成功下载。
下载的文件不会自动打开，但会显示一个对话框(dialog box)，询问您要对该文件执行什么操作。
要打开或运行文件，请单击或点击打开(Open)或运行(Run)按钮。
如果您决定不想运行或打开文件，请单击或点击关闭(Close)按钮。
如何在Internet Explorer 应用程序中管理(Internet Explorer App)您下载的文件(Your Downloaded Files)
您可以在Internet Explorer应用程序的“(Internet Explorer)下载(Downloads)”部分找到您下载的所有文件。要进入“下载(Downloads)”部分，请打开浏览器，然后单击或点击“页面工具(Page tools)”按钮（带有扳手图标的按钮）。
在页面工具(Page tools)菜单中，单击或点击查看下载(View downloads)链接以进入下载(Downloads)部分。
此外，对于键盘用户来说，很高兴知道您可以使用键盘上的CTRL + J下载(Downloads)”部分。
在这里，您可以找到使用前面提到的“保存”按钮下载的所有文件。(Save)要选择文件，请单击或点击其磁贴。
在下载(Downloads)部分的底部，您可以找到用于管理下载文件的按钮。
请注意(Please notice)，浏览器知道如何根据文件类型(file type)来区分文件，因此可用的操作会因文件而异。
让我们看看“下载(Downloads)”部分中的每个按钮的作用：
Open/Run- 使用该类型文件的默认程序(default program)打开所选文件或运行您选择的可执行文件。
Open file location/Open program location- 打开下载文件的文件夹。默认情况下，所有文件都保存在“下载(Downloads)”文件夹中。
Delete file/Delete program计算机或设备(computer or device)中删除选定的文件，并将其从Internet Explorer应用程序的“(Internet Explorer)下载(Downloads)”部分中删除。

How to Manage Your Downloads in the Internet Explorer 11 App
Web browsers are usuаlly the most used softwаre when it comes to downloading fіles. Thiѕ is why managing downloads has to be simple and intuitive, so users can find their way easily through the files they downloaded іn thе past. Becausе Internet Explorer 11 app for Windows 8.1 is a relatively new web browser, we will share with you everything you need to know about downloading and managing downloaded files in this browser.
The Download Options You Have in the Internet Explorer App
After you press the Download button or link on a website where you want to download a file, a dialog box is shown, asking if you want to run, open or save the file. If you are downloading an executable file, you will see Run instead of Open. If you are downloading a document or an archive, you will see Open instead of Run.
Choosing either of these two options, makes the Internet Explorer app download the file to a temporary location. Once the download has finished, the file will be opened or executed.
You should choose Open or Run only if need to open/run that file once, because the file will not show up in the Downloads folder and will be automatically deleted later on, since it is stored in a temporary location.
However, if you click or tap the Save button, the file will be saved in the Downloads folder and will show up in the Downloads section of the Internet Explorer app. That's why we recommend that you always go for this option.
Every time you download a file, the browser performs a security check to make sure you don't download malicious files. The check is made automatically using the SmartScreen Filter and then with the default antivirus you have installed on your computer or device.
If you left the browser window during the download process, a notification will pop-up telling you that the file has been downloaded successfully.
The downloaded file will not be opened automatically but a dialog box is shown, asking what you want to do with the file.
To open or run the file, click or tap the Open or Run button.
If you decide you don't want to run or open the file, click or tap the Close button.
How to Manage Your Downloaded Files in the Internet Explorer App
You can find all the files you downloaded in the Downloads section of the Internet Explorer app. To get to the Downloads section, open the browser, then click or tap the Page tools button (the one with the wrench icon).
In the Page tools menu, click or tap the View downloads link to get to the Downloads section.
Also, for keyboard users, it's good to know that you can get to the Downloads section by using CTRL + J on your keyboard.
Here you can find all the files that you downloaded using the Save button mentioned earlier. To select a file, click or tap its tile.
At the bottom of the Downloads section, you can find the buttons that allow you to manage your downloaded files.
Please notice that the browser knows how to tell the difference between files based on their file type, so the actions available will be slightly different from file to file.
Let's see what every button in the Downloads section does:
Open/Run - Opens the selected file using the default program for that type of file or runs the executable file you have selected.
Open file location/Open program location - Opens the folder where the file was downloaded. By default, all the files are saved in the Downloads folder.
Delete file/Delete program - Deletes the selected file from your computer or device and removes it from the Downloads section of the Internet Explorer app.
Clear - Removes the selected file from the Downloads section of the Internet Explorer app. However, the file is not deleted from your hard disk.
Clear list - Removes all the entries in the Downloads section of the Internet Explorer app. Your downloaded files will remain on your hard disk.
