Was having the same issue but I have successfully fixed it on my end. I had to think about why chrome would even be associated with a disk drive in the first place, (other than where the program itself was stored on C: - which should make no difference), and then I thought about the save location for any file I downloaded while using Chrome. I save everything externally and although I had "ask where to save..." selected, I also had set chrome to save to my external hdd (in my case, drive L😀. Well, like many of us, I sometimes unplug/replug my usb connections from time to time and if they don't go back exactly where they were - they then associate with another drive letter. (My new drive letter is now G: but it was still set to use L😀 To fix = Just check to see if the drive selected in the chrome options matches the drive that things will actually be saved to, if not, correct it and issue will be resolved. 😀

You probably downloaded something to a USB drive or some other drive that is no longer plugged in. Simply open Chrome and hit Ctrl+J. Then hit Clear All to clear all downloads. Now when you try to download something it will not try to populate the download list and will work like normal.
