Silly Question but I'm Stumped- IE8/9 view downloads AFTER completion Hi there
I can't find it --but is there a way of looking at your download history AFTER a download has completed in IE8 or IE9 -- I can only see the popup application while a download is actually in progress.
(Same problem also on IE10 in Windows 8 developer preview if you are trying that version of Windows too).
I can't believe that the application is only available during a download.
Thanks

Simple enough. Just press CTRL-J in your IE window.
If you know where you're downloading your files to, of course you can simply browse to that folder and find them there. If you don't know, you can change the download location in IE's settings ( Control Panel -> Internet Options). | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Custom-built OS Windows 7 Professional SP1 32-bit CPU Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4GHz, overclocked to 2.7GHz Motherboard Asus PL5D2 Memory 4GB DDR2-667 (4x1GB in dual-channel config) Graphics Card nVidia GeForce 9800 GT Sound Card Creative X-Fi XtremeMusic Monitor(s) Displays Acer Screen Resolution 1920x1200 (DVI) Keyboard Standard Mouse Microsoft wireless optical mouse PSU Antec TruePower 2.0 Case Cooler Master Centurion Cooling various fans Hard Drives OCZ SSD Vertex Plus 60GB SATA (Firmware 3.55), 64MB cache
