Slow Download button doesn't do anything

[Norah]

I tried downloading mods today, and I can't anymore. I turned off internet security etc, and that changed nothing. I haven't installed any extensions or ad blockers or anything. I've got no idea what could be causing this.

There are 3 common causes for this:

• If you're pressing the Vortex button but don't have Vortex installed it won't do anything. Please use the "Manual Download" button instead. 
• If your download doesn't even start, this will most likely be caused by browser addons or privacy settings. We've got a guide to help you here: https://help.nexusmods.com/article/113-troubleshooting-website-issues
• If your download starts but times out or fails in some other way, that's quite likely a connection issue. Here's our help guide for that: https://help.nexusmods.com/article/92-im-having-download-issues-what-can-i-do

If none of those solutions work, please let us know which browser you're using and provide a link to the page where you're trying to download a mod.

Trying a different browser works, thanks. I still have no idea why it's needed though. There should be nothing stopping it from working in my regular browser.

I'm having the same problem today The button suddenly just stopped working in Chrome...

Some browsers try so hard to enhance privacy and limit tracking, that they can break things.  I break into a cold sweat every time Firefox updates, for this very reason, afraid that I will have to dig into its settings and exceptions once again.

had the same issus too yesterday, still havent find out whats wrong with anything. it was working fine like 3 hours ago while i was playing a game, later on when i need to add a new mod to the game the download button just stopped working. nothing has changed in that 3 hours to my computer nor my browser. i cant view my download history cause it wont load, clicking on the "sort by" option in mods page doesnt do anything. at the end just have to use EDGE to download. still having the same problem now but i just dont know whats happening.

I have the same issue, clicking on 'slow download' does not respond. The download history cannot be loaded. I am using Chrome browser, version 130.0.6723.117, JavaScript is enabled, and all extensions are disabled. I can click these buttons on the webpage when I'm not logged in, but after logging into my account, clicking them has no response.

@JaxomPern I just checked via search engine, and the latest Firefox for Linux is 132.0.  Any reason for staying on the version you have?

It seems that it's not just my problem.
