Why do I keep getting asked what to do when downloading a file?
When I go to download a virt-viewer connection file from my react app, I keep getting asked when to do even when I have "Do this automatically" checked. When downloading the same kind of file from other webapps, I do not get the dialog box.
How can I avoid the open file dialog box?
The app is using a dynamically generated tag that looks like this:
<a download="console.vv" href="data:application/x-virt-viewer,___content____"></a>
Any ideas?

Here is what the dialog looks like
Maybe specify the type also via the type attribute.
- type="application/x-virt-viewer"
I tried adding the type attribute on the a tag but the behavior is the same.
Although, when I change the default behavior to save the file, the dialog prompt doesn't appear. The prompt only seems to appear when "Do this automatically" is not checked or if it is checked, when the A's href is a dataurl.
