Problem with generating Dropbox link

I'm using regular Dropbox plan which is free. Previously i can share Dropbox link multiple times but from the past 2 month, I couldnt create the link and everytime i click the copy link button, it says “Unable to generate link
Something went wrong, and we weren't able to create a shared link.”

Can someone explain to me?

    Hey amirsyaif, sorry to hear about this.

     

    It sounds like your shared links may have been banned. Have you received an email from Dropbox informing you about it perhaps?

     

    Let me know what you find and we'll take it from there.
