Re: Error downloading folder through web client

Error downloading folder through web client

I'm trying to download a large folder through the web client. After I click download I'm prompted to save a small file called unspecified.htm, which saves and then nothing else happens. I'm sure I've used this feature successfully before. Any idea what's happening?

I've tried both download methods - click the folder and click download at the top, and right click. I can download individual files successfully.

Tried Mozilla Firefox & Chrome, Windows 10.

Me too- it's not normal.

If you can't download large folders via web client then you should be getting a pop up alerting you to this fact when you attempt to do so.

Unless someone at DB has dropped the ball of course 😉

 

I'm also not happy about being locked out of my account when someone I share with dumps a load of files on me without regard for the way DB works.


Can't blame my Shared folks- they're not IT savvy, but I'd expect better of DB programmers.
