Shared link throws "That didn't work for some reason" error.
I contacted someone else from the company and apparently it was an old link.
Thank you anyway!

Thanks for your post today, RobbeJ.
Do you have any other shared links that you can test perhaps? Are they throwing the same error message?
Is this a shared link that you created on your Dropbox account, or was it sent to you by someone else?
If the latter, there’s a chance the owner has deleted the file/folder it links to or the shared link itself.
Let me know what you find.
