Hi Ryanxxx123, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

 

Could you try switching browsers to see if this helps?

 

Otherwise, you can try using incognito/private browsing mode without any extensions running, clearing your cache and even resetting your browser entirely.

 

Keep me updated with any progress!

      Hi Ryanxxx123,

      Did you try in terminal with command like:

      wget -c --content-disposition "<your link here>"

      If the file download breaks for some reason, just repeat the same command again and again so many time as needed till full download. 😉

      Hope this helps.
