Explainer https://github.com/MicrosoftEdge/MSEdgeExplainers/blob/main/DownloadURL/explainer.md Specification None Design docs https://docs.google.com/document/d/1nHPDuEE876RMKwYBVzWgPvsek-9X1NhZuFyY5Q5Z6YU/edit?usp=sharing Summary This feature extends the existing DownloadURL drag type to allow users to drag and drop multiple files simultaneously from a web application (such as a webmail client or a web-based tool) directly to their desktop or file system on Windows. Historically, the DownloadURL drag type has been limited to supporting the download of a single file per drag-and-drop operation. This new design addresses that limitation by introducing a JSON array format for the DownloadURL string, allowing it to carry information for multiple files. Blink component Blink>DataTransfer Motivation This enhancement addresses a significant pain point for users who frequently interact with web applications that involve multiple downloadable items. For example, users can now download multiple email attachments from a webmail client (eg, Outlook Web) or export multiple generated reports or images from a web-based tool using a single drag gesture, rather than being forced to perform multiple, inefficient, and cumbersome drag-and-drop operations for each file.
