[Vuejs]-How to download .docx documents with Vue/Laravel

✅

i tried this and it didnt work for me too
dont use ajax or axios
send your request with get-request and in your function return download response:

return response()->download(public_path('uploads/TestWordFile.docx'));

you dont need to send ajax request.
use GET and when you return some response, page wont be refreshed!
this should work for you

Try using ….

public function downloadFile(Request $request, File $file)
{
    return Storage::disk('local')->download($file);
}
