I could ask this a number of alternate ways: how do I really prevent a folder from being scanned by Gallery? Device: Nexus 4 Android version: 4.

That really looks very strange. Not sure if it helps, but lacking other ideas: Remove both files, then create an empty ic. It's a wild guess, but maybe the contents of ic. Thus having created a read-only ic. You will see a download icon on the status bar in the upper-left corner of your screen.
Swipe down from the top of your screen. This will open your Notification Center in a drop-down panel. Your file download will appear at the top of your notifications. Tap the Pause button. This button is located below the name of the file you're downloading. It will pause your download until you decide to resume. You can resume the download anytime by pressing Resume.
Tap the Cancel button. This button is located next to Pause below the name of the file you're downloading. It will stop and cancel your file download.
The download box will disappear from Notification Center. Method 2. Open the Play Store on your Android. The Play Store icon looks like a colored arrowhead icon on your Apps menu. Find and tap the app you want to download. You can browse menu categories, or use the search bar at the top to quickly find an app.
Tapping will open the app page. This button is located below the app name in the upper-right corner of the app page. It will start downloading this app on your Android. Tap the "X" icon. Tap this icon to stop and cancel the app download. That's it. No file type should open automatically once they've finished downloading from here on out. Rather than configuring Chrome to prevent a certain file type from launching automatically or resetting the browser's auto-open download preferences, you can simply use Guest mode to bypass the download settings.
It's great for one-off instances where you want to perform normal downloads without making any changes to your browser. The Guest mode works outside of your Chrome profile, so it doesn't have access to any of your preferences. While you will not have access to your browsing data bookmarks, passwords, history, etc. Step 3: Initiate a download. It should show up in the download shelf and normally save to the Downloads folder on your PC or Mac without automatically launching it.
Auto-launching file downloads work a treat in cases where you don't want to waste a second longer to open them manually. But you don't want that to happen all the time, especially when you're in the midst of serious work.
The methods above should help you stop that—just pick the one that works the best for you. That said, Chrome's download capabilities do require a serious revamp. They are outdated, unintuitive, and hard to reconfigure.
