    Thanks for posting on the forum, khawlaelian!

     

    If I get this right, everyone is sharing a link with you to some files, but while you can view some links, others seem to throw an error for no reason, correct?

     

    Do you mind sharing with me a screenshot of said error, so that I can have a look? 

     

    Let me know when you're ready.

        Thanks for the screenshot! Appreciate it.

         

        Are you the only one having issues with the specific shared link? Are you receiving the same error message on various web browsers?
