Error seems to be reproducible with any host app writing to the mapped folder, but it's easy to reproduce with either Chrome or Edge.

Steps to reproduce the bug

  1. Share the host Downloads folder. e.g.
<Configuration>
  <MappedFolders>
    <MappedFolder>
      <HostFolder>C:\Users\user\Downloads</HostFolder>
      <SandboxFolder>C:\Users\WDAGUtilityAccount\Desktop\Downloads</SandboxFolder>
      <ReadOnly>true</ReadOnly>
    </MappedFolder>
  </MappedFolders>
</Configuration>
  1. Open the Sandbox
  2. Download a large file

Expected result

Download should succeed

Actual result

Chrome or Edge reports "Couldn't finish download"
