Chrome browser not allowing download of addons






















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. Click on it. By default, the feature is set to ask permission when a site tries to download files in succession. This is the recommended behavior, but if you want to block all sites from downloading multiple files automatically, toggle the switch to the Off position. No longer will you receive a prompt when a site tries to download multiple files one after the other.

However, if you want to keep this feature enabled and block specific websites that you trust to download multiple files, you can blacklist a site instead. Toggle the switch to the On position. Repeat this process for as many websites that attempt to download multiple files. Browse All iPhone Articles Browse All Mac Articles Do I need one?

Some users have complained about Yandex because a lot of the content is in Russian. Firefox is well known, and for a good reason. It has always been a close competitor to Chrome because it is equally fast, more secure, and more interested in your privacy. Most Chrome extensions will have a Firefox equivalent, so if you have a favorite setup on your laptop or desktop, you can mimic it almost precisely on mobile.

In this case, it's time to take some further measures. After reading numerous stories telling how people fix the downloading problems in Chrome, we summed up four effective solutions which I hope to be a permanent cure.

These are what you can try: clear all history and cache, run the Chrome cleanup tool, and reset settings to Chrome's original defaults. If you want to keep your Chrome history and cookies, you can backup or export Chrome history and cookies in advance. A Chrome cleanup tool can find and remove harmful software on your computer. Running this tool may solve the "Chrome won't download files" issue caused by malware. Step 4. Under "Reset and clean up", click "Restore settings to their original defaults" and then click "Reset Settings" to confirm.

Attention, resetting Chrome will reset the browser startup page, new tab page, pinned tabs, and more. It will also disable all extensions and clear temporary data like cookies. However, other files like your bookmarks, history, and saved passwords will not be saved still. If you want to retrieve cookies but have no backup available, learn how to recover cache files in Google Chrome here. To uninstall Google Chrome completely, first, you need to uninstall Google Chrome under Settings, then go to the registry to delete all Google folders.

Chrome is programmed to block specific files from your devices, but it can make mistakes. If you believe Chrome is stopping you from downloading files to your computer or smartphone without a valid reason, you can use one of our suggested methods to unblock the files and ensure access to them. Has Chrome mistakenly blocked safe files from being downloaded?
