Start your Computer in safe mode with network support. Then start Firefox. Try Secure websites. Is the problem still there?

This download manager works separately from the browser. The browser tells it what to download, and off it goes.

Please explain the problem in detail. What happens? What are the exact error message(s) ?
No error message it just says download failed
An ISO file is a system file. It's possible it was blocked for that reason, maybe.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
The problem is still here I tried safe mode but it did not do anything
