+fbax 4 Posted November 21, 2020 I access email via Chrome. Last week when I clicked "Download now"; Chromes downloaded the file but warned me it might be unsafe; I clicked "accept" and file was downloaded/available. After another Chrome update; now when I click the "Download now" link; I see a new tab open and close. When I ask Chrome to reopen last closed tab; I see its the PQ download page. This suggests that the PQ download page was accessed; yet no file was downloaded. Anyone else see the same behaviour? I know I can go to the PQ download page and manually download a file; but that's a LOT more clicks than just clicking link in email. How to fix this? Chrome Version 87.0.4280.66 (Official Build) (64-bit) Quote Share this post Link to post
+CAVinoGal 661 Posted November 23, 2020 I hadn't noticed this glitch, but based on this thread, I checked my version of Chrome and tried to download from the recent email. I'm using the same version of Chrome as listed (87.0.4280.66, Official Build, 64-bit), I too see the same behavior. A tab appears to open and close, and nothing is downloaded. I typically don't download from the email though. I usually go to geocaching.com and download from the PQ page, once I get the notifications and that works as expected, with no warnings about unsafe files. Quote Share this post Link to post
+Deepdiggingmole 71 Posted November 25, 2020 I too have noted this - it has only begun to happen in this last week I got the unsafe files messages but that is fine as you click on that and then the file downloads - but now I click on the download file - and........ nothing I too can find the download within GC but far prefer the email version for ease.

+Deepdiggingmole 71 Posted November 30, 2020 I did note that in Chrome nothing happened - nothing saved In Firefox it appeared nothing happened (as when you click on the download now link you got no options where to save the file as you used to) however I discovered it was saving the file to the 'downloads' folder. This didn't happen at all in chrome Quote Share this post Link to post
