Happy to help in any way possible rajeshm.
Due to the size of the folder it's possible that it'd either download as a zip, or that it'd be too large indeed.

Once you have the screenshot, let me know.

Any file format would do that. Some other Cloud storage have not this limitation (pCloud for example)
