When I attempt to download a file from any site using Internet Explorer 6.0
the dialog box will momentarily appear to allow selection of a storage
location, then both the dialog box and browser window will close without
error or warning. I have attempted to resolve the problem by doing the
following with no success:

1. Removes all add-in’s for IE 6.
2. Scanned for malicious software such as spyware and virus.
3. Uninstalled IE 6 and re installed.
4. Deleted all cookies, history and Temporary Internet files.
5. Deleted the index.dat file and rebooted system.
5. Almost tossed laptop, but I didn’t. :

The problem still exist and I have run out of ideas. Any Suggestions?

Thank you for getting back with me. I appreaiate your suggestion
but unfortunatly this is a step that I have already taken. I only wish it
were a case of not being notified of the download being completed. The
issue exist on uploading as well. Yesterday, I attempted to store a file on
a clients server using the browsing function of the web site. I selected
the browse button from the site to navigate to the file I wanted to upload
and the same issue occured. The dialod box closed on it’s own and so did
IE.

Thanks again!
Bob

Enable, Disable File Download Option in Internet Explorer in Windows

You may agree a handful of downloaded files from unknown authors carry the risk of running some sort of viruses. These files feature an executable code and therefore are dangerous. What is worrisome, the threat rises up exponentially when more people have access to the same machine.

For instance, in a home environment, kids or other individuals who do not have much knowledge of malware may end up downloading a file that may contain malware. If you have anti-virus software installed, well and good. But if you don’t want people to download files from the Internet to your machine, as an additional precautionary measure you can disable the file download option of your Internet Explorer.

Disable File Download Option in IE

There are several situations when disabling downloads in IE provides a temporary or permanent fix to guard your PC against viruses, worms, trojans, and other malware. Microsoft makes it possible to disable all downloads in Internet Explorer.

To do so, open Internet Explorer browser and navigate the mouse cursor to the ‘Tools’ menu.

Next, choose ‘Internet Options’ and under ‘Internet Options’ window, switch to the ‘Security’ tab.

Then, under the section ‘Security level for this zone’, click the ‘Custom level’ button.

Finally, in the settings zone, find the ‘Downloads’ heading. Under it ‘File Download’ option should be visible to you. Select Disable.

Click OK and Exit. Restart Internet Explorer.

Your current security settings do not allow this file to be downloaded

From now onwards no individual will have the freedom to download stuff through the browser! Internet Explorer will display a warning message stating that the current security settings do not allow the downloading of files every time they attempt to download something.

When a person tries to download something, he will see the following message:

Security Alert: Your current security settings do not allow this file to be downloaded.

I am having problems with doing downloads of any files from any website using Firefox. Every time, when I try to do a download, I get an error that the download failed. I am running Firefox 98.0.2 on a Windows 10 laptop. If I use Microsoft Edge, the download is successful. Any help would be appreciated.

Just wanted to give an update:

Sorry I can’t provide any definitive reason for how I got the issue to work as I wanted. Hope what I said I did helps others who might run into this issue.

Can you provide a screenshot of the error (or screenshots of the errors)? If you use Firefox to take the screenshot, see this article. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/take-screenshots-firefox

Attached is a screenshot (PNG FORMAT) of what happens when I get an error in trying to do the download. The error can be seen in the upper right area of the screenshot.

If you have no luck diagnosing the issue using the ideas in the first article linked below, you could try the others.

What security software do you have?

It is possible that (anti-virus) security software is causing the problem. Try to disable security software temporarily to see if that makes a difference.

I am using Norton 360 as my security software. I tried disabling it but it didn’t resolve the problem. I will look over the articles at the links provided but that will not be done until sometime on Thursday.

Just wanted to say that I’ve had some unexpected higher priority issues surface so I haven’t been able to get to trying the suggestions given by terry21. Hope to get to looking at this over the weekend.

Hello, the Refresh Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its default state while saving your essential information. Consider using it before going through a lengthy troubleshooting process.

The following article describes the steps to take if you are unable to download or save files with Firefox. What to do if you can’t download or save files

I’m posting this again since I don’t see it and I thought I did the post. Hopefully it will show up!

«Couldn’t be downloaded» error when downloading files from secure websites in Internet Explorer 9 and later versions

The Internet Explorer 11 desktop application is retired and out of support as of June 15, 2022 for certain versions of Windows 10.

You can still access older, legacy sites that require Internet Explorer with Internet Explorer mode in Microsoft Edge. Learn how.

The Internet Explorer 11 desktop application will progressively redirect to the faster, more secure Microsoft Edge browser, and will ultimately be disabled via Windows Update. Disable IE today.

This article provides information about resolving the Couldn’t be downloaded error that occurs when you try to download files by using Internet Explorer 9 or a later version.

Original product version: В Internet Explorer 9 and later versions
Original KB number: В 2549423

Symptoms

You cannot download files or view files from a website when you connect to the site over HTTPS (secure sites) by using Internet Explorer 9 or a later version. For example, you visit a secure website such as a bank or other financial institution and try to download or view a PDF file. The file does not appear in Internet Explorer and you may see an error message similar to the following:

Error message 1

Internet Explorer Cannot Download

Error message 2

This problem occurs if the Do not save encrypted pages to disk option in Internet Explorer is selected.

Cause

To download files, Internet Explorer must create a cache or temporary file. In Internet Explorer 9 or a later version, if the file is delivered over HTTPS, and any response headers are set to prevent caching, and if the Do not save encrypted pages to disk option is set, a cache file is not created. Therefore, the download fails.

To fix this issue, first try method 1. If method 1 fails, go to method 2.

Start Registry Editor.

For a per-user setting, locate the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings

For a per-computer setting, locate the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings

On the Edit menu, click Add Value, and then add the following value:
BypassSSLNoCacheCheck =Dword:00000001
