Google chrome failing to download files

Open Settings on your computer and click on the Apps icon. Sometimes, incompatible browser extensions can block downloads and interfere with proper functioning of Chrome browser. On the next screen, disable Extensions by moving the toggle to OFF position.

If an extension is unnecessary, click on Remove to uninstall the extension. As mentioned above, this error message prevents users from downloading files from the Internet, from Google Drive and other sources. In certain cases, the problem can also be caused due to presence of Malware and Rogue Adware programs on your computer. After clearing browsing date, try to access the webpage and see if you are able to download the file.

If you are trying to download files from Google Drive and other trusted sources, disabling HTTPS scanning in the Antivirus program should allow the download to proceed. Now, try to download the file and see if you are still getting Failed Network error on your computer. As mentioned above, the problem can also be caused due to the Hosts File being modified by Malware and Adware programs. Right-click on the Start button and click on Run.
