I used to download email attachments, pictures and music very easily. Since last week, it's no longer downloading any type of file from any website. What's the matter? Google Chrome is so simple and powerful that everyone loves it. But recently I found that one issue is under heated discussion on some major-related forums: Google Chrome is not downloading files! Or, while selecting a location to preserve the download s , the required download prompt box doesn't appear as usual.
After many searches on the internet, Chrome fans said that they still don't find a confirmed solution to solve the problem.

This site in other languages x. I am not doubting your claim that Firefox follows closely what Chrome does but can you give a few examples?
I would really like to know. Also which Firefox fork do you recommend? I am looking for a new browser that is similar to FF for my win7 machine. What if you copy the hotlink and paste it in a new tab? I never encountered this, so I had no need to try it, but I guess it should work. Garbage like this is why I use Pale Moon. That garbage from pale goons that keep spinning years old unsecure moozilla code might not track but deliver a nice malware bundled into their pale web browser straight from their compromised windoze servers they cannot secure by themselves.
You should clarify the wording in your article. That is NOT the case, and an important point to make. Chrome keeps getting worse every version. I went to T-Mobile last night. Tried to refill my Pay-As-You-Go account. Chrome does allow me to login. But then when I submit my refill, nothing happens. No notification of any kind. Who knows? Then I tried to save the page showing my planned submission.
This is ridiculous. Whoever is designing these browsers and Web sites like T-Mobile are complete and utter morons. Maybe some problem of non security content? Blocking of download is not a good idea , it may affect google badly.
People want to download many things from the internet stopping them from doing that may harm the google badly, people easily switch to other browsers. Version The tab opens with your file name in the URL but nothing happens. Works fine in FireFox, Brave and believe it or not Edge. On my Windows 7 SP1 x64 machine, I have FireFox as my preferred browser, when Chrome opens the new tab, it hangs on a white screen for a bit, after about 10 seconds, Windows prompted FireFox to open and up came the option to download, I had to click a link to open File Manager to download the file and it worked.
I just spent an hour on the phone with a customer trying to download critical vaccination information from the Government of Canada website because when she clicked the link, it just did nothing. Yet worked on all her other devices Apple. So no error, no indication to a regular user that it is blocked. Just silently failing. Way to go, Google. Once again you are using your monopoly to dictate how you believe the Web should work.
How much more time will be wasted? This is just stupid and may make me leave Chrome. ANY user feedback would have been nice. When I click a download button or right click and get no response other than a quick screen flicker … I lose my mind.
I hammered on the download button about a dozen times. I ended up uninstalling all of my AV and malware protection software. I was ready to reinstall Windows 10, but tried Edge as a last-ditch attempt and it worked. I put myself in more danger by disabling my security settings and software than I would have by downloading a bad file. I do know if I use Download Manager, I can get those files in a useable and complete download.
