Warning Invalid argument - On downloads

Excellent - No really .. I just figured out what it is, for us Chrome variant users (maybe better for firefox too) the old behaviour of being able to right click a file to download, and select "Open in New Tab", so the download now appears in a new tab instead of those pop-up windows (one for every download).

 

Now because of this change the download also comes via the Chrome download shelf ...

 

and asks the user if it is safe to download - Save or Discard

 

which did not happen in the pop-up download window we have had to use for a while (not a problem for zip files which do not spawn the security question) -- Just tried the previously problematic Wrye Python 04 (an exe) ... This change has also solved that problem.

 

Casts "Summon Dark0ne" spell ..

 

Thank you :)

 

Edit: Just tried it with the BOSS 1.7 Installer exe too No problems.

 

It seems like the previous download pop-up window in more recent versions of chrome, was surpressing the security question on such files (I had previously tried re-sizing the pop-up window so that all edges could be seen) so the download could not complete, which probably necessitated the need for a change on TESNexus downloads.

 

Hmmm - Problem at my end eh? http://www.thenexusforums.com/index.php?/topic/377028-cant-download-files-from-nexus-sites/page__view__findpost__p__3249443

 

Well at least a helpful conclusion/solution was drawn for anyone having the same problem.

I dont think the warning messages yesterday would have made a difference to downloaders, but the reason for the warning messages I believe were changes Dark0ne was putting in place to solve problems as pointed out in my last post. I dont know the details of what was changed on site but it was certainly a welcome one in what it has enabled us to do again.

 

The messages seem to have all gone today so the changes must be complete. Dark0ne will probably confirm somewhere, my powers of conjuration obviously went fizzle, need more training in that skill :).
