Unable to access Donation requested downloads

Linux Mint - itch.io latest client installed.
I can search games. If i use the "Free" tag, many come up. If I select any that request a donation after clicking Download, the "donate or no thanks" window pops up - when/if I click "no thanks", the download button(s) that should appear next to the file names never appear.

I know buttons should appear because if I use Firefox to browse the same games, they appear if I click 'no thanks'.

How do I correct this? I mean, I could just skip the client and use my web browser, but i was hoping to use itch.io client to keep some together in one easy menu.

EDIT - NO idea what changed, but this is working now. I'd originally tried uninstall/re-install, but that didn't work. I went into preferences, changed nothing, saved, tried browsing again and the file download buttons now appear.

This has happened again. "Unauthorised" (https://redindiegames.itch.io/unauthorised but doesn't seem to be just limited to that item.
I click download, no thanks, and the pop-up disappears but doesn't reload the page with files linked.)
