Introduction


Are you trying to download a file via Google Chrome, but you cannot complete the download?
Failed - Virus Detected is an error message that you may receive when you download files to the Google Chrome web browser and block the download.

It's an alert that something is wrong, it takes a while to complete the download. Although you can see that the file has already been 100% downloaded to the local drive, Chrome still displays the progress dialog box.

Chrome displays the progress of uploading files to a status bar at the bottom of the browser window. It highlights the transfer speed and also the status information on the download itself.

Often, you will not be able to download or access a newly downloaded package if an antivirus program detects a malicious file that could cause a security breach for your Windows 10 device.

In any case, if you are sure that the downloaded file is 100% secure and that you receive a false alert from your antivirus, you can resolve this issue in order to resume the initial download operation. Of course, by following the troubleshooting steps below, you can also return and use Google Chrome without receiving other security alerts.
Again, follow the instructions below only if you are certain that the files that will be downloaded do not represent a security risk for your Windows 10 system.

If the download process cannot be completed because Google Chrome prevents you from doing so, or if you try to open the downloaded file and you receive an alert message, you must follow the instructions below. We will see how to solve this general security problem of Windows 10.

How to Fix Failed Alert, Virus Detected in Google Chrome

Since this security alert is usually displayed when Windows Defender is used as the only security software solution, we will first show you how to restore the blocked file:

1. Open Windows Defender on your computer.

2. In the main window, click on virus and threat protection then on scan History.

3. In the next window, click Show Details.

4. Files that have been quarantined will be listed here.

5. Find the program that was blocked for no apparent reason.

6. You can choose to restore the default file if you know it can be trusted.

Now, to make sure this file will not be detected as potential malware, you can add a particular exclusion in Windows Defender. Or, and I recommend doing so, you can disable Windows Defender permanently.

Of course, after that, you must choose to install a new security program in order to keep everything safe and secure all the time. But, this time, choose a better security solution that receives daily updates and that can correctly identify the files that are dangerous to your computer.

In this sense, one of the best antivirus programs to choose is Kaspersky. It is a paid software that secures your Windows operating system with your personal files and your web browsing actions.
