Since a recent Chrome Canary update, you lose focus after downloading a file, because a new download popup appears. How can I make block this popup from annoying me?

    If you are using canary you should know that there could be certain issues, especially with new features. You could always file a bug report. Apr 24, 2022 at 7:27

    Thanks, already did. However, my fear is that this will stay that way so I'm already looking for a workaround...

    this "feature" just became default for me, after restarting the browser. I'm not running anything special. The feature still steals focus. They didn't fix anything. Jul 10, 2023 at 21:00

    This flag is no longer available in version 122.0.6261.128. The answer provided by @TheRemoteCoder helped me.

In a newer Chrome version, there's a feature in the settings under "Downloads / "Show downloads when they're done".
