| Chrome does not download files anymore... | chocobanana | 2/3/09 3:17 AM | Greetings Whenever I click any link to download a file via HTTP in Google Chrome, nothing happens. It works just fine in Opera and IE7 and it used to work in Chrome before... Any ideas please? Thanks |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | kevinstonge | 2/3/09 3:39 AM | I will start by saying that downloading in Chrome works for me (using 2.0.159.0).Here are some thoughts:Have you opened the download manager by pressing CTRL+J to view your current downloads (if any) and your download history?Have you checked your do |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | chocobanana | 2/4/09 6:13 AM | Hi No downloads are started No files appear in the download location Happens with different filetypes Works on an admin account but not on a Standard User account (though it used to work) Already deleted the Preferences folder from Application Data |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | wackyshaun | 2/4/09 10:15 PM | I am also having this same problem. I haven't had time to really diagnose it, but it seems like I can download one file. Then the rest of the time the download hangs and says "Starting...". If I close and reopen, then I can download one more file |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | chocobanana | 2/5/09 7:37 AM | Woops Forgot to mention that I'm currently running Chrome v1.0.154.48. |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | mkn | 3/27/09 5:31 AM | I just experienced my first total hang with Chrome. I had started a large download an hour ago and tried to start another. What happened was that the download would not start and after a couple of trials I ended up in a total freeze and had to kill C |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | defaultuser | 4/18/09 12:21 PM | I am experiencing this same problem, using XP and Chrome 1.0.154.53 |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | fillupt | 4/27/09 4:16 AM | Same problem here. Never used to happen. Win 7 Beta 7000, Chrome 2.0.172.8. Downloads 'stall' on 'Starting'.

| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | makeroftoys | 5/31/09 3:49 PM | WE ALL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. Will someone from Chrome explain what is going on????? Downloads don't work! |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | fillupt | 7/2/09 8:03 PM | Just an update - Installed RC 1 and then re-installed Chrome and it's fine. |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | RobinAvigilon | 7/24/09 5:03 AM | Did anyone find a fix for this problem? I could do with having a fix without exiting the browser as I have a large online project I have designed and do not want to quit without saving. I notice not much response from Google here |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | ewalzel | 7/26/09 5:22 AM | Hey everyone, I might have a temporary solution. It has probably something to do with writing permissions in the temp folder. There might be a way to fix this properly, but I haven't found it yet, so here's my (little obscure) way: 1. create a folde |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | dr4cul4 | 10/24/09 2:07 PM | I have same issue on 3 machines (one of them has 3 accounts). The funny part is that it worked fine before clean system installation, but only on one account (of 2). I have no idea what the problem is. I can't save or download anything... windows jus |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | dr4cul4 | 10/24/09 2:11 PM | Found solution thanks to ewalzel. It is permission problems on temp folder. Some people like me keep to make things clean, so I remove local tem and tmp variable from user profile (Standard system wide %windir%\temp is used then). As it turns out it |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | Boatner | 12/2/09 5:51 PM | That was it. I had installed Windows 7 x64 and initially installed Chrome as a local user with admin privileges. Later, I joined the domain and began using my domain account. After installing Chrome in the new profile, downloads no longer worked. |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | shadowkras | 2/9/10 11:57 AM | Im using Windows XP and i have this problem, i have modified my temp/tmp folders left and right and still cant solve this issue, it seemed to work fine until i reformated my OS partition 2 weeks ago, now it cant download any files anymore, but it sti |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | bpempire | 2/23/10 2:27 PM | In win 7 I found that for some reason I didn't have access to the users folder (even though I could access my documents) something must've screwed it up.. All I did was take ownership of the users folder and then I could access the whole folder which |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | RandolphScott | 3/17/10 4:32 PM | I recently re-installed XP (and Chrome) and encountered this problem. The cause of my problem was that due to a dodgy install I had deleted: \Documents and Settings\_Usernamegoeshere_\Local Settings\Temp Creating a new 'Temp' folder fixed everything |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | kuttere | 4/13/10 11:22 AM | ewazel nailed it. I just changed the access permissions of my c:\tmp folder to full control for all users and it started working (Properties/Security). Also got it working by disabling User Account Control but didn't care much for that solution. I |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | JF0rd | 6/7/10 9:16 AM | None of these worked for me. I redirected the downloads to another folder, and it worked. |
| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | saroth78 | 8/21/10 3:14 PM | wow. first off i must say what a joke. I am having a similar problem.

| Re: Chrome does not download files anymore... | peasoup77 | 8/24/10 9:04 AM | I found this on another thread. It may be of help to some of your problems. I too, inadvertently, clicked the disallow button and am unable to download any attachments from my gmail. "Hey All, I went into Options > Minor Tweaks > Ask where to save |
