Windows 10: Issue with Downloading files from Google Chrome

Hey everyone


I'm having an issue with downloading files from Google Chrome. Whenever I try to download a file to somewhere other than the downloads folder I get the error message shown below





If I download files to my downloads folder, it works. I should mention that I have tried downloading the same files from explorer and had no issues downloading them to any location on my computer. This just started tonight and is specific to Google Chrome. Has anyone else had this issue?

:)

Hi,

Since you already uninstalled Google Chrome using the Programs and Features, Google notifications may still be running in the background processes. We suggest that you follow these steps on how to end the Google Chrome process:

• On your keyboard, press Ctrl+Alt+Delete.
• Select Task Manager.
• Under Processes, locate Google Notifications or Google Chrome.
• Right click on them and select End Task.
• Double check under Programs and Features if Google Chrome is completely gone.
