Force render issues (raw=1) and shared links won't work for hosting.
images were perfect on all browsers until yesterday afternoon - what is the fix or is this a dropbox issue?
We are rolling out a fix for issues with raw=1 and dl=1 links that started recently. Please try again and let us know if it's still not working.

Hello. I have the same problem. All links changed their behavior from one moment to the next. Look at this example: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/su95ust5cesfgavoz8d2j/15-essmov-polt-womb-250324.zip?rlkey=mh7nwgqf2o33u27adz7vmj1bk&st=jgddg5es&dl=1 even dom dl=1 it redirects to a blank dropbox page. It downloads but redirects to a blank page. I've already tested it on several browsers, including in anonymous mode. - toyheart2 years agoHelpful | Level 6

I have found a link generator that creates links so that they can now be played. it's just a shame i now have to spend several days changing all the links

Im wondering, (again sorry if super noob question) but I managed to video work embedded. Than I copied the link from dropbox and it stopped working (missing file error) Is this possible that every time I generate link or copy link from dropbox its somehow changing (hence video missing info) Are some link generated temporarily rather than as a main link and unchanged?

Hi @Jay,
Yes, it happens in all scenarios. I tried clear cache, private mode, in another browser.

Not able to download the files from Shared Links.
Usually the shared link ends with dl=0 by changing it to dl=1 downloads the file directly, but from today its not downloading!!
I know many of them are facing this situation.
Anybody know what is the reason behind it ?
