The downloaded file does not appear in the Browser Download History. It does work in legacy mode (e.g. Firefox) but not in Chromium based Browsers (Edge, Chrome)

How to recreate:

Save Image File
Open Browser Download History (Default Ctrl + J)

This is working as intended, because with the File System Access API you save the file, you don't download it.
