Which files does Chrome name? Did you unpack the archives as described and then open the html file? I've removed all active files, so there are only the 1 html file, the css (style sheet) files for the webpage format (you can look inside with a text editor) and the picture files left.
The files are identical to the files you temporarily have when you open https://qanon.pub/ online.
So the only danger caused by the files can be the content (the Q drops) for the DS...
I've tested the files with Firefox and Opera (different versions) and got no problems. I haven't installed chrome. So I'd be glad if you could give me more info about the problem. The file names or perhaps a screenshot of the message ("alt-print" key combination with the message window active).
If we find the reason I can add that to the documentation.
Chrome won't even let me download them. It's been a bitch to me lately. Probably because I refuse to upgrade it because I would likely lose more features.
Ok, then it's a kind of overdone nanny feature. All the files are packed into zip archives. Archives can contain any kind of file, such as .exe or other filetypes that can be infected by something. But just to download an archive file and save it on your disc is not dangerous.
Even unpacking all the files in a directory you specify is not dangerous. Then you can look which file types are in that directory. I always switch off the option to hide the extention of known file types. So you can check if all file types are not dangerous (jpg, gif, png etc.).
Additionally you can let your anto virus software check that directory (which includes all the files there).
And when you then open the html file you do the same as if you open it online.
I chose that solution for archiving the Q drops to avoid that you have to download a software what always would be a security risk. Such a software could have more features such as autoupdate for new Q drops. I think there's such a software around, too. I'll make updates from time to time after Q dropped a lot of files. The update archives will be much smaller because they'll contain only the files added since the three big basic archives.

This?
Save everything offline! Q drops 1-3774, complete backup as a simple 4 file download (or 1 smaller update file if you already have the first 3 parts posted in August 2019)
There will be an update (small file) probably in April.

Chrome tells me they are dangerous files and shouldn't be opened.

btw, thanks so much for making these available in this format. Very easy to use for reference.

Seems to be working with Chrome now.
I have demons in my computer.

I'll try using Edge.

I know all that. It was just Chrome being a bitch.
I had the archives earlier when you first posted, but I lost them when I dropped my external hard drive.
I keep archives of everything I look at or might be useful offline. Your archives are very handy, so I'll watch for updates.
Thanks for all your trouble!
