whoa, how strange, i just tried it and nothing happened :/

Do you have an Antivirus extension on your chrome?

Avast has some really nasty and really annoying extensions that almost block yo from doing anything as simple as direct download

I do not, All I have is the DuckDuckGo extension and an adblocker.

a. I don't have an antivirus tho, and if I do, it would probably only be the windows firewall.

wifi refused to download as I imediently got a network error lmao

the 64-bit version off of zdoom.org downloaded okay but the 32-bit one wont, so weird, but I have it.

[Mr.Rocket]

The site where the executable download is hasn't yet been submitted to Microsoft as a safe file.

Once it's submitted and reviewed, the file won't be looked at as unsafe anymore.

[Doom64hunter]

Just another example of overzealous protection mechanisms. If you know and trust the site it's usually of no concern to bypass the block.

[Mr.Rocket]

Yeah pretty much.

You can select the arrow where it's dismiss and click in "show miore info" and bettew the words, there a option that's says "keep the file, im know what im dowloading" and you should be able to re-download again.

[SaladBadger]

There's something about the binary that's tripping a lot of red flags in malware scanners. After fighting Chrome to download it, I successfully downloaded it only for Windows Defender to promptly quarantine it. I cannot confirm if the executable is actually tainted or if it's just tripping up false positives, though. It's one of those really generic signatures that don't give a lot of information, and there's a lot of reports of false positives on it.

 

I guess that's just the annoying reality of this world. Bad software gets too good at blending in, so security software has to get overzealous..

get a download manager.. like Free Download Manager...
that should fix your problem...

[xX_Lol6_Xx]

You can use another browser too, I used to use chrome until those problems started, I switched to Firefox and I havent had any problems with my downloads

Indeed. We actually even have this at work where Chrome would simply stop an attachment from being downloaded purely because its launched as a pop up. Ofcourse this proved to be a bane for medical staff (But the fix is hilariously easy to the point where you will understand why they are medical staff for a reason and not computer users. Seriously, its that bad.)

[URROVA]

Ok, i tried to download the zip, and this happens to me too. wtf chrome why

[Dark Pulse]

Possibly related to this.

It's a false positive, Defender also blocks the file. Probably it's related to using the VS XP toolset.
