Problem Note 67357: SAS® Studio 5.2 does not open a file after you click "Open" in the dialog box

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

Within the Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge browser, in SAS Studio 5.2, a dialog box to open a text file does not open the file.

For example, the following code creates a file called Myfile.txt:

data null;
file _dataout;
put 'Testing';
run;
%let _DATAOUT_NAME=Myfile.txt;
%let _DATAOUT_MIME_TYPE=text/plain;

SAS Studio then shows the following dialog box:

Do you want to open it?

When you click Open, nothing happens. If the browser developer tools are active, the following message might appear in the browser console:

Download is disallowed.

Click the Hot Fix tab in this note for a link to instructions about accessing and applying the software update.
