Shared links result in 400 error.
For some months now I am not able to share links since anyone who will open it will 9/10 times receive an error 400 message. Everytime I share these links I first test them in an incognito window and they work completely fine.
It seems that after a while they simply stop working? Sometimes I will test a link a second time a couple of minutes later and despite working fine previously, they suddenly can't be opened.
It is very annoying and I can't find a solution to this.

Sorry to hear about this, Venicious.
Just to clarify, does this happen with all of your shared links, or specific ones only? Can you send me a screenshot of the error, so that I can have a visual too?
Also, may I ask how long has it been since you've been facing this issue?
Keep me in the loop.

Thanks for your help.
The error looks like this.
I only share .mp3 or .wav files on dropbox to share music, so it's not really specific. I would say I've had this for a couple months now (2/3 months).
