When i'm trying to access Windows Central or some other website, Edge is asking to download .htm file. So to access website I have to download this file and then open it. What is this?

That sounds like a bug or file association issue...

Edge shouldn't be asking you to download the website in order to view it.

Which version of Windows 10 are you running?

Are you on a insider build?

The easiest way to check is:

1) Windows Key + X

2) Run

3) Type in WinVer

There was a cumulative update released, KB4015438 which would bring your version upto 969. Try updating, that may fix the issue you are experiencing with Edge.

Also did you use "registery cleaning" / "registery repair" application?

They usually wreak havoc with file associations.
