Hi CAB2k, let's jump right into this! 

 

Do you get any specific errors when trying to share your folders/links with others? 

 

Did you also receive an email informing you about the ban? 

 

Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!

No message on my end. The link was created on 11/27/23. The link worked when it was sent that day. The link was sent to a 3rd party for viewing & she got this message.

This person can't access the file because of its sharing permissions

I've had similar issues with expired links but I do not know what message they got. They said it had expired.
