HTML5 download attribute is not working at all on Firefox.

I created a simple HTML Mark up like this:

Logo <a href="Will Logo.png" download>Download Image</a>

When I click the link, it doesn't download the Image, it opens it in a new window.

I have tried it on Edge and Chrome and the result is the same-- the Image doesn't download. It simply opens up in a new window.

Is there some settings that I need to enable, for this HTML5 download attribute to work?

Regards.

1. This attribute is working on Firefox. 2. Your code doesn't work in any browser. 3. This forum is not meant for learning. 4. Check this example -> https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml5_a_download
