Sure Megan. I ll try to get a Screenshot. I haven't zipped the folder, shared individual media file by creating separate links.
meanwhile is it possible to have such restriction to download through website?, can I ask them to download through app?
Please suggest.
Thanks for your extended help!

Any file format would do that. Some other Cloud storage have not this limitation (pCloud for example)
It’s a crazy stupid limitation, as video file can now easily exceed 50 Gb…..
I’ve opened a suggestion for developers, but for me it’s more a bug that a suggestion !
