Description

All downloads overwrite existing files instead of adding ' (1)', ' (2)', etc. Includes fix to remember folders.

- Very similar to the original "Downloads Overwrite Existing Files". This one includes a bug fix so it will remember your previous download folder, rather than default back to your default download folder.
- Microsoft Edge Addon: https://microsoftedge.microsoft.com/addons/detail/dfnblaebmpjlokbkadgeaghajajidojj
- See source code here: https://github.com/zach-adams/downloads-overwrite-already-existing-files
- I am not responsible for lost/overwritten data. This does not compare the contents of files or the file modification time before overwriting, it only compares filenames.

thx, no idea which drunken monkey at google thought automatic renaming of files was a good idea. firefox works like this addon by default btw, google, sometimes you really could get the impression that you just don't wanna chrome to at least be as good as mozilla's browser.
