But when you go to the DOwnload Manager and select "Open Containing FOlder" you get an error message. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Lets say that I download www.mysite.com/mypdf.pdf but save it as mypdf_v2.pdf. Wait for the download to complete. 2.Right click on the completed file name and select "Open Containing FOlder" 3.Error message appears: "mypdf.pdf does not exist. It may have been renamed, moved or deleted since it was downloaded." Expected Results: The file mypdf_v2.pdf is still there, so of course, one would expect it to open the proper containing folder. Since Download Manager selects the file you downloaded when it opens the containing folder, it obviously has to remember the name of the file it saved. Looks like it is remembering the original name rather than the name I actually used to save the file.
Oops, my apologies. This was user error on my part. This is not a problem.
