If Chrome says there’s something wrong with that download security-wise, play it safe. This means the frequency of this security alert will only increase.Īs always, prevention is better than cure. Starting with Chrome version 88, Google will automatically block all unsafe downloads. Of course, there is always the option to force the download using a different browser.
Reload Chrome and check if the security alert is gone now. Set Safe Browsing to No Protection (not recommended). Then click on Privacy and Security (left pane). Click on Chrome’s menu and go to Settings. Other users confirmed they managed to bypass the alert by turning off Safe Browsing. This includes executable files, images, videos, archives, and any type of documents. Keep in mind that starting with Chrome 88, Google will automatically block all the files that may pose a threat to users’ data security and privacy. This workaround may not work for all users. Some users suggested that installing a VPN extension on your browser may remove the alert. Or at least, make sure your antivirus is running. If you choose to disable this feature, take your time and think twice before downloading anything. However, keep in mind this is a security feature meant to block downloads of unsafe files. Use the drop-down menu to disable the feature. Launch Chrome, open a new tab and go to chrome://flags/#treat-unsafe-downloads-as-active-content. Chrome restricts downloads only to webpages they have valid certificates from. Hitting the Keep button won’t do anything. Or abandon the download if you don’t want to risk getting your computer infected with malware. Use the HTTPS version of that website if there is one. If the page you’re trying to download the file from is not running the HTTPS protocol, Chrome will block the download. If that download might leak your private data or add unwanted toolbars, Chrome will block it.Ĭhrome Says The File Can’t Be Downloaded Securely Check if There’s Any HTTPS IssueĬhrome is very picky when it comes to HTTPS.
