Files cannot be downloaded

Reported by robert.l...@gmail.com, Jan 12 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/55.0.2883.87 Safari/537.36

Example URL:

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Select a file to download
2. Try to download it
3. FAIL

What is the expected behavior?

What went wrong?
Whenever I try to save a file (an image, a zip file for work, etc.) nothing happens.  It works jut fine in other browsers, but not chrome.  I've done all the troubleshooting I can do.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 55.0.2883.87  Channel: stable
OS Version: 10.0
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 24.0 r0

Can you please provide more detailed steps about what you're doing? Downloads are working fine here on Stable and Canary.
Sure.

I've tried several times lately to right-click on images to save them
locally.  The right-click menu appears and when I select "save image as"
nothing happens.  I also tried to download a zip file sent by my employer,
again nothing.  No errors messages or anything saying that I wasn't
authorized.

As to the images, I was able to drag/drop them into a folder but that gets
tedious when I sometimes have to deal with hundreds of images a day.

I googled the issues and followed several suggestions to no avail.  I reset
cookies/deleted history, reset security settings to default, changed
settings in my download manager, etc. but got nothing.

At first I thought it was user error but after I could download things in
firefox I realized it was a chrome issue.

Does this only affect those save-as dialogs?  i.e., if you click on a link to a zip file or an installer or something, does it sucessfuly download?  Sounds like more a UI issue than a network one.

Not sure if "save image as" is included under SavePage or Downloads, so attaching both labels.
