Downloading - "save to" dialog takes seconds to appear

Description of the issue:
Downloading - “save to” dialog takes seconds to appear

Every time I download some file from a web page, it takes some 10 seconds before the “Save to” dialog appears. I have a pretty modern PC and this did not happen until recently

Expected result:
“Save to” should be available near instantly

I’m having the same issue but even worse as my browser goes in an endless loop while being unresponsive when I select the location. They really bunged something up with the updates.

Do you have a lot of windows and tabs open?

I did a full browser restart after disabling a plugin I added the week before and now it seems to be better again.
