What happens if you try to download those files with Firefox?

Do you get an error page or is this a problem with safe browsing protection?

Can you attach a screenshot?

Hi when it comes to installing the bios its not something you want to go wrong , and not sure what would happen if i did use Firefox , as for the reason why they say to use edge or chrome im not sure , but i know im not happy using them maybe, its a question for the tech guys , if you can assure me that there wouldn't be a problem i would be happy to use Firefox . thanks Lee

Not sure why MSI would suggest you use Chrome or Edge when Firefox is perfectly capable of downloading (save file) a .zip file to whatever storage drive you want to download it to and then you go about installing the new Bios.
