Clarify "delete browsing data" for "downloads"...
-
In "delete browsing data" there is a checkbox option for "downloads". Does that delete just downloads history, or files too? Please add clarification in the labeling.
NOTE: If it does delete downloaded files too, then I think that is dangerous. Because some users can carelessly select the "all" checkbox without realizing they are deleting all files stored in their downloads folder. It is safer to just let users deliberately delete downloaded files through Windows Explorer by themselves.

It deletes only the download history.
