Couldn't agree more, it's ludicrous that in 2021 you can't manage or download your files. Total joke!
Please @Squarespace Guru help!

Dear Squarespace Developement Team,
For the love of all things web design - PLEASE rectify the image/media file management for BOTH designers who help SELL your service and for those who manage their own sites.  We have other options and while I have helped sell to and set up small business websites via Squarespace - this past week I was in a situation where I could have really leveraged Squarespace to a room of emerging artist learning how to build their own websites, and because image/media file management is SO crucial and can be a HUGE time suck to contend with - preventing artist from making art because they are wasting precious hours trying to organize their web presence - I DID NOT recommend Squarespace. Instead, WixPix became the recommended website host to about 1,500 students in this business course... They have a file management system on the backend of their platform... The fact this has not been addressed in my time as a customer baffles me. There are a lot of important devevlopments and very grateful for the ones made around eCommerce, but even for eCommerce image file management is CRUCIAL. It's literally dreadful when a client needs a 100+ product images updated and REQUIRE somehow removing the outdated images so they don't confuse the customer.
This should be addressed, must be a top level feature, and if you don't have the people on your team capable of making it possible - hire someone who can.
Thank you.

Same here!. I uploaded a lot of photos to the wrong place, and it turns out I can't move them, so only option is to recreate gallery and add again. One at a time is too slow a process, so I now need to up load them all again!
 
Seems silly there is no media or file manager function where you can manage uploaded images. :(

following, same issue here

Same thing with me building templates! I've started to play around.. and god I do not want the play around images in there! They'd think "geez, what is this"
I had contacted them before my comment and they said they get lots of requests but they're adding it to the list and passing it on. 
Makes you question how they've gone this long without that feature.. mind boggling!
Hopefully it's our Christmas treat!

Not super helpful but it is flagged by Dev teams. Hopefully they fix it soon, it's a fairly big oops if you ask me (and I have over 20 years experience in Enterprise SW QA).
 
 

Yes. This is super important. I just built a website for a client which I started by duplicating a site I did for another client. I ABSOLUTELY CANNOT hand it off with the first client's custom photography saved in the imported images.
So I have to build the whole site over from scratch???
OMG. Hours and hours of redundant work are ahead.
This is not ok.

Definitely following this thread. I feel this is my biggest frustration with Squarespace. Especially seeing there is a lot of trial and error with image sizing so could result in multiple uploads. 
I've been looking to see if they have "vote this feature" in anywhere like other platforms do. Because I would press is a million times!

Hey! I'm working on a site and I played around the options (newest version of Squarespace) a lot. This uploaded the "dummy-images" on the site every time and now when browsing uploaded images it is hard to find the relevant pics.  How do I manage the images uploaded to the site? I'd really like to remove all of the unused images.

Same here! Working on a client website and decided to try Squarespace versus my Wordpress resource. Uploaded a ton of FPOS and went to clean out the image library and learned that you can't delete imported images. WTF? Who in the world thought this was a good idea? HUGE FAIL! Without that function I will never use SquareSpace for another client website again. This client now has a TON of images that will never be used.
