** Description changed: + Maintainer's note: Current workaround: XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=XFCE chromium + + Original report + --------------- + In Ubuntu 20.04, with the new update 135.0.7049.52 from snap it's now impossible to download any file from web. It's like it's working, but nothing happens. No file is downloaded. No entry in the downloaded file section. I tested it on two different machines, with several files on the web and on my personal company server. The same chromium version is working well on ubuntu 24.04. Edit : Further investigations show that the bug only appears when the setting "always ask where save files" is activated. With the default setting where file is downloaded automatically on the download directory without asking for location, it's working.
