Q: Safari Downloader

Is there a way I can get the Safari downloads tab to stay in my browser?

 

Right now when downloading files it will show in the top right corner with a progress bar but goes after download is complete.

I want it to stay there so I can check on my downloaded files.

Mac mini, OS X El Capitan (10.11.2)

    I believe that, as long as something remains in your downloads folder, the icon stays in the toolbar. In Safari Preferences > General tab change the "Remove Download list items" option to "Manually" and I believe that will fix the problem.
