Brave really needs a delete button for files, so users don’t have to go to File Explorer (Windows) or Finder (Mac). It’d make downloads easier and less annoying actually.
Here is a screenshot of it in development thanks to Github user aguscruiz
Brave is truly getting better with each update, but this will be useful for us
Update: As of version 1.82x it has rolled out to everyone officially confirmed on their X account: https://x.com/brave/status/1964000651588849810

These are just things I loved about Edge that I kinda miss when using Brave.
… Sometimes I click twice cause I don't think the download has started, when in reality I've downloaded it twice. It would be nice if I could just delete the file from the Brave browser when it's finished instead of having to open File Explorer.
It would also be nice to be able to see the progress of a download through a meter. It would also show the download speed, that way I know whether I should try an alternative download link if it's too slow.
Brave has officially rolled out the Delete download button on every Brave Build!

Well i wish I could remove it. I keep hitting it thinking I’m just removing it from the download list
Thanks!
