Windows 10: Cannot attach a file in Gmail.

Gmail has been working perfectly until about two + weeks ago. Then it would say "no internet connection" although the internet tested connected. Then another issue developed. When trying to attach a file to an email, the shell of the file will attach, but it never downloads.

I've tried everything I can find on the help pages, but nothing works.
