Reproduce the issue in the Windows 11 ChatGPT client in Work mode using feedback ID no-active-thread-019faa39-9c0b-7c23-ad75-930a0016d7a3, comparing it with the web browser or Windows ChatGPT Classic client. Trace the Codex chat output rendering path; done means generated file URLs render as clickable download hyperlinks.

Description

app bug windows-os
What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?

ChatGPT client in work mode

What subscription do you have?

Business

What platform is your computer?

Windows 11

What issue are you seeing?

when ChatGPT generates a file for you to download in the chat, the hyperlink does not render in the chat window output, preventing the user from clicking to download the generated file.
The work-around is to open the chat up in the web browser or in the Windows ChatGPT Classic client where the hyperlinks are properly rendered.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Feedback ID: no-active-thread-019faa39-9c0b-7c23-ad75-930a0016d7a3

What is the expected behavior?

a proper hyperlink should be available allowing the user to click and download the generated file.

Additional information

it's only the codex version of ChatGPT windows client. I was in Work mode.
