WebDirect Bug with spaces in filenames

I've found a bug in WebDirect.
 
The 'Save Records as PDF' or 'Export Field Contents' script steps work fine in WebDirect.
However if you have a space in the output filename, or even '%20' it does not work - the dialog appears but the download fails.
This might also affect other script steps, but I haven't tested that as I don't use them.
 
This used to work so I assume it's an issue with a Chrome or FileMaker Server update.
 
I am using FileMaker Server 19.4.2 on Windows Server 2019 and running the database in the latest version of Google Chrome on Windows 10.
All the latest updates are installed.
 
Anyone else experienced this? Any workaround apart from removing spaces or replacing them with '_'?

Claris couldn't reproduce the issue so I tried it on a fresh VM and it worked.


Turns out it wasn't a bug but some issue with the WebDirect installation. Re-installing FileMaker Server resolved it.
