I have been pressing alt-s, as in save when just after it asks do you
with to open or save. Alt-s seems to work, and then if you press
control-J in IE11, you'll go to your "view downloads," and there will
be the list of your downloaded and downloading files. On each file
you can press the right arrow to see if it is downloading, or if you
hear "save" again just press space bar. Or, even if a download is
stopped for se reason, you will be able to change that condition by
using the arrow keys, usually right arrow to get to "resume" button.

I have used the key stroke Alt plus N to find the buttons when downloading a
file in IE. I am successful most of the time. Another way that might work
is by pressing Alt plus the letter D to get to the address bar, and then
using shift tab to find the buttons.

Hello Adrian,
You mentioned that you are using IE 11. One of our computers has IE 11, and
when I attempted to download a file, I couldn't figure out how to do it. A
screen popped up which asked if I wanted to open or save the file, but I
couldn't find a place to activate either of these options. There was a link
for more information and a close button. Are there some settings I need to
change?
Thanks Adrian, or anyone else with IE 11 experience.
