Thank you. Download fails in firefox. .exe files cannot be downloaded, but image files (PNG, JPEG) can be downloaded without problems.

It is possible that (anti-virus) security software is causing the problem. Try to disable security software temporarily to see if that makes a difference.

Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support to see if that has effect.

Thank you. After restarting firefox, it seems to have resolved the issue. For the time being, I would like to wait and see and use the information you gave me so that I can use it in the event of a recurrence. Thank you for your cooperation.
