[Plugin: W3 Total Cache] Page Cache shows download file popup in Windows Browsers

There is an issue with the order of directives in your .htaccess file, can you paste it here and switch to disk basic meanwhile?

Hi Frederick.

I have this:

After that I have my own rules.

Thanks.

Put your own rules at the top.

Hi Frederick, did that and will try with Windows to see if its fixed.

Also people is getting this:

Any idea why and how to fix that ?

Why the page cache causes all this problems ?

Thanks.

Disable HTTP compression on the browser cache tab because your server is already compressing output.

I have HTTP (gzip) compression on in the browser cache tab as follows:

General
Cascading Style Sheets & JavaScript
HTML
Media & Other Files

Which one should I disable ?
Or I have to disable all ?

Thanks.

Specifically disable the http compression checkboxes and save settings.
