Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set to download to a flash drive or other disk then unplug the disk 2. Try to download a file 3.

Some users may think that the download simply finished quickly and will search for the file and not be able to find it. Expected Results: Show an error message that the drive does not exist, or prompt the user to save to a different location.
