Hello
I am trying to make a folder public, but whenever I share the link the receivers (including myself) cannot download the files. We are guide to the file on dropbox but the file cannot be downloaded. An example is: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/f549knzc9eg3jvb/AACdPY9KOKqRpTrKLhYlKOWia?dl=0
This is not in a public folder. But it is a problem that has happen again after March 15.
An immediate answer is appreciated.
Thanks

https://www.dropbox.com/...link.filetype?dl=0
So just remove the ?dl=0 and change the www to dl
Works for me and now my podcast can continue.
