I have checked the "Ask where to save each file before downloading" option in Chrome settings yet after installing 7-Zip, every time I click on a link which targets a .zip file:
- chrome doesn't fire up the download bar like with any other file type
- yet downloading starts automatically
- (which leaves me no chance to cancel the download for smaller files which arrive pretty fast)
- .zip file is saved to my default downloads folder
- 7-Zip fires up and opens the file
I can't find an option to disable this behaviour under the options of 7-zip nor Chrome. Having a file automatically downloaded and opened rises an obvious security concern. Has anyone ran into this before or knows a solution?
On last check:
- Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit
- Google Chrome Version 31.0.1650.63
- 7-Zip 9.20
