unable to download more than one file at a time from the distribution page (Chrome/Vivaldi)

The .exe works, but the .msi installer download just loops back to the page - Adobe Flash Player Distribution | Adobe

Are you using Chrome by chance?  Did this start after updating to the latest version of Chrome (71)?

There appears to be a difference in behaviour with the latest Chrome (Version 71.0.3578.80), in that it's only allowing one file to be downloaded at a time. Downloading another file is possible after reloading the browser.  This is not reproducible on previous version of Chrome (Version 70.0.3538.77), Firefox 63.0.3, or Edge browser.

I'll report this to the team responsible for the distribution download page.  In the interim, use a different browser, or reload Chrome after each file download.

<edit>

Also, what Windows version are you using?

Thank you.

Actually using Vivaldi

Thanks for confirming.  That's quite plausible as Vivaldi is based on Chromium.  While Vivaldi is not supported, I'll test on Vivaldi as well.

Which version of Vivaldi are you using?

[skepticus]

Vivaldi 2.1.1337.51 (Stable channel) (64-bit)

Revision 73e8a741402d9589f3249582d24e5c2da63f1880-refs/branch-heads/3538@

OS Windows

JavaScript V8 7.0.276.42

Flash (Disabled)

Thank you for confirming.

<edit>

I've done some additional testing on Chrome and Vivaldi and have forwarded the info to the team responsible for this page.  Opera is also based on Chromium, however, I didn't observe the behaviour on the most recent version of Opera (57.0.3098.91), nor Opera Beta (58.0.3135.21)
