Hey there @GYROSCOP28, sorry to hear you're having issues with this. 

 

Can you please clear your browser's cache or try another browser/incognito window and let us know how it goes?

 

If you still get the same error, I'd appreciate a screenshot too.

 

Thanks!

Hey @GYROSCOP28! Hope you don’t mind me jump in. 

 

From what I understand, you’re having this issue with a shared link that was sent to you by another user, correct?

 

Are you having any trouble downloading other files, in general? If you happen to have another shared link available at the moment, can you please try to download its files and let me know what you see? 

 

Does the owner of the shared link face similar issues on their end?
