how do I get prompts to either open or save a download?
Usually, before I open an excel file from an email or from a web link I am
prompted with a window asking me to either open or save the file. However, recently several files have not been giving me the prompt and I'm wondering how I can make the prompt the default setting for all excel file downloads. |

Go to My ComputerToolsFolder OptionsFile Types.
Select XLS and Advanced.
