Hi sirmalik,

·         Did you the latest changes on the computer before this problem?

·         The problem occurs with all the files?

·         From which site you try to download the file?

·         What web browser do you use?

I suggest you follow these methods.

Method 1: Start the computer in safe mode with network and check if the problem persists.

Note: After the boot minimum troubleshooting step, follow step 7 in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startupmode.

Method 2: Try to create a new user account.
