Manual Backup to my Computer Not Working

No offense taken at all. Yes, I am logged in as the Administrator, as always, when I do this. And I only have one Administrator account.

Before I back up, I delete the old manual backup files, if there are any, so it’s empty. Here is my sequence in pictures and words:

  1. I go to the backup section and click Backup.
  2. "Do you want to start a new backup? I click YES.
  3. When it’s done, I get the green mark, and it says "Backup completed successfully.
  4. I go back to Backup in the Admin section and click DOWNLOAD.
  5. A link is sent to my email (see pic 3 attached).
  6. I click the link, but instead of downloading the file, a new tab opens in Chrome (see pic 4). I have tried other browsers, but it makes no difference.
