Is there a way to stop downloads from automatically saving to the computer?
I usually rename the file and save it to the cloud.
It would also be nice if the download automatically opened, is this possible?
Thanks in advance
MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.15
Thank you for your advice dialabrain.
I reviewed my settings. I had/have the Open "safe" files after downloading. It doesn't seem to open them regardless.
I do see an option to set the file download location. I changed it to "ask" for each download. I'll try that out for a little while and see how it goes.

You're welcome

There's some criteria that determines what is considered "safe". Some things will open, some things not. Personally I don't use Safari often and Firefox, which I normally use, doesn't have the option at all.
You can't "download" directly to iCloud if that's what you're asking.
You can set Safari to open downlloaded "safe" files in Safari > Preferences > General
Saved downloads
