Hi Ron,
I just sent you an email with the dropbox link! I attempted to start Procmon, download fail, and stop capturing as close together as I could, but it still came out to 42MB!

Hi Ron,
I just sent you an email with the dropbox link! I attempted to start Procmon, download fail, and stop capturing as close together as I could, but it still came out to 42MB!
Thanks. I am downloading it now.
May have found something or I may be barking up the wrong tree. Copy the next two lines:
dir /a "C:\Users\Livsie\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data" > \junk.txt notepad \junk.txt
Oh okay! Would you recommend me uninstalling and then reinstalling Chrome possibly?
How about just creating a new user and logging on as the new user instead of reinstalling Chrome?

See if the new user has the same problem.
Your output looks very close to mine so I'm probably barking up the wrong tree here. It is strange tho that in your log the process reads the file many more times than mine does.
it appears that my installation of Chrome wasn't system-wide.
I merged scanon.reg, created a new User with full Admin privileges, installed Chrome there (which triggered it to be system-wide), and attempted to download a file-Virus Scan Failed again! This is so strange!
OK. Barked up the wrong tree. Will keep looking but may take a while.
Hi Ron,
So in the process of working on something else (attempted install of 8gb of RAM on my system to replace my 4gb which failed so I'm back to 4gb), I had to run Windows Repair, and that actually fixed Internet Explorer on my computer! So I thought to myself, "self, maybe a fresh install of Chrome would help" so I uninstalled Google Chrome and re-installed it-IT FIXED IT. I now have Scanon.reg merged, and all three of my browsers (Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and most importantly Google Chrome) are now able to download files without any issue.
I honestly have no idea what fixed it, Windows Repair or the fresh install of Chrome, but I wanted to make sure I told you asap!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I'm so sorry that you spent so much time on this, but I'm so grateful for your help. You helped me solve so many other issues on my computer, including getting rid of AVG which had been the bane of my existence for a few years now. Thank you again, and Happy Holidays to you and yours
