Vivaldi download error {Avast}
-
Hi, just one issue with Vivaldi. In MS Teams web app, I try to download a PDF, and when I click download, I could see the download in progress in the sidebar. Then it suddenly stops. I had to restart the download again, the issue continues.
Finally I had to launch Brave Browser and download the selected PDF file, and that, was without any issue.
Why did Vivaldi have an issue downloading while Brave didn't?
-
Details? Was the file particularly large perhaps, or was it a slow/poor connection?
-
Actually not any tool. No extensions either. But I had enabled the block trackers and ads feature in Vivaldi settings. Is that the issue?
-
@Gwen-Dragon Does Avast Antivirus prevent this?
-
@sgunhouse No, that file was just 2 megabytes, that's it, and the connection was stable.

@Gwen-Dragon
Thanks for the info. I usually ignore Avast notifications, but after this issue i just opened Avast and saw that it was asking for my permission saying "Allow Vivaldi to make any changes" (add files) to my device, After I allowed it, downloads happen without issues. -
