I can’t open file from browser when it is downloaded, sometimes it doesn’t download file at all.
How can this issue be reproduced?
Install brave and download any file (apk, zip…) except photos.
I get the same on Poco F1, Android 10.
Files get downloaded but once finished the notification says “download error” and clicking it does not open the file. This is also valid for images, not just other file types.
Brave, latest stable
I am also having this problem. I cannot open PDFs I have downloaded. I have not tried other file types. I also cannot change the download location and although the app has the setting checked to ask where to to save files, it does not ask.
If I turn off “ask where to save files” then it tells me it can’t find my SD card when attempt a download and does not allow me to download the file. If I check the settings again after attempting to download “ask where to save files” has been turned back on!
