COMEReturn to the COME source after opening Files
Opening Files during a COME download does not necessarily close the source browser tab. Use the app switcher and browser tabs to return to the original context.
Keep the file and page roles distinct
Files locates a saved item; the browser retains the source page and transfer history. If the item was incomplete, inspect the existing browser entry before opening a new source or making another copy.
Resume with the recorded state
After returning, verify whether the transfer completed. If Android installation already ran, check the installed app instead of treating the return to a browser as a fresh start. The visible screen is not the whole task history.
A practical example
You open Files, find the package and return to the browser. The browser still offers Download. That button remaining visible does not mean the file disappeared; use the completed record and item you already found.
Keep the surrounding steps clear
A browser download has its own record. The page that starts the request, the transfer entry and the saved file are three useful checkpoints. An animation on a webpage is not the browser's completion result. Inspect the record before beginning another copy, especially if the first attempt could still be running.
Android installation is a later step. A package can be completely saved while no application has been installed. When a completed file is selected, read the receiving app and Android's actual message. Do not disable device protection or accept an unrelated permission because the file task is inconvenient.
If the same problem returns after one deliberate check, keep the destination address, time, browser name and exact message. That is more useful than a list of repeated taps. Avoid deleting working app data, clearing every browser record or creating another account to diagnose a transfer problem.
What a completed answer looks like
You can move between source, file and installer contexts without duplicating a stage already completed.
