This hasn't been true for a long time, the automatically open 'safe' files option has been turned off by default for years now.
Though the option should be removed all together really.
- Rjevski 8y agoIs this true? I remember unticking this option back when I reinstalled High Sierra on my MacBook.
- netgusto 8y agoNot true from my experience. Just checked in Safari on an up-to-date system (High-Sierra, patches applied) and the option is On by default in Safari preferences (I never changed this setting).
- cjcampbell 8y agoI can verify as well. I’m in the process of setting up a new Mac and had to turn this off yesterday.
- dep_b 8y agoUnsure. It was off on my machine but I might have had a flash of insight before and forgot about it.
- JohnTHaller 8y agoIt's still on by default. I just checked my clean Mac Mini that I never use Safari on and it is on.
