Hi Clive, I just ran some more tests and it turns out, that it lasts very long (from 1 minute to minutes) to finish the download. The downloads seem to stuck at e.g. 98% or 99% with speed 0 B/s.

I noticed that it switches to window just used before the download. It's mostly firefox because I'm using 2 firefox instances when downloading. While writing th...

I forgot to log in. So the previous note is from guest.

Usually I'm working with 2 firefox Windows. But I had even the same behaviour when using only a single firefox instance. The focus has been transfered to Outlook, which I used just before. That's what I found out so far. Sometimes it works (the active firefox windows stays on top) and sometimes it d...
