  `PopupForm` post action should return a `Json(obj1)` object which will close the popup and execute the `success function(obj1)` or view/content/string which will replace the popup content. You can return a `Json(info)` and in the success function use the `info` to make a separate request that will return the file. You can copy the `getFile` js function from here: https://demo.aspnetawesome.com/GridExportToExcelDemo and call it in the success function of your `PopupForm`
