To increase the security of your Salesforce data, allow your users to download all custom file types as attachments.

Where: This change applies to all editions of Lightning Experience and Salesforce Classic.

How: Select Download custom file types as attachments from the File Upload and Download Security page in Setup. With this preference enabled, Salesforce securely downloads unrecognized file types instead of opening them in the browser. We strongly recommend that you enable the setting and see how it affects your configuration before this preference is automatically enabled.

Note for Admins: Personalization is enabled by default in a Lightning app. But if you don’t want your users to personalize the navigation bar for a specific app, disable personalization. From Setup in Lightning Experience, go to the App Manager. For the desired app, select App Options. Select “Disable end-user personalization of nav items in this app.”
