"path/restricted_content/" when download some type of file

Question

I get the error when I download some file types (for example apk, zip, ecc). The strange thing is that some files apk downloads them while others do not, even with the same name.

I use Dropbox.api in .net application.

The 'restricted_content' error is expected when attempting to access files that have been restricted, e.g., due to copyright claims, per the documentation:

If you believe the files have been incorrectly flagged, please report them to support to review:
