Can`t download files using Chromium browser

Good day!
I have installed Chromium 49.0.2623.87-1~deb8u1 using Synaptic package manager. But I can`t change directory for downloaded files in settings. What`s more important, I can`t download files using Chromium at all! I use Q4OS 1.4.8-n1 x64 edition. All shown in video:

Try to create file:
'/etc/chromium.d/99-custom-chromium-scr' , contents:

if [ "$KDE_SESSION_VERSION" = "3" ] ; then
  unset KDE_SESSION_VERSION
fi

After creating file and rebooting, download started to work, thank you!
One thing, the images, which show download progress does not show up.

Re: Can`t download files using Chromium browser

Rademes has installed Chromium via apt-get or Synaptic. If you install via Software Centre the configuration is handled automatically by Q4OS tools.

Re: Can`t download files using Chromium browser

On Q4OS x64 platform Chromium is not available in Q4OS Software Centre. Only Google Chrome is avaliable, so I installed it using Synaptic package manager.

Re: Can`t download files using Chromium browser

Yes, we have just released a fix, this workaround is no longer necessary on any architecture after system update.
