    Thanks for the image. When you invite people, that means they need a Dropbox account to view the link, meaning it has become a shared file, and not a shared link. 

     

    This does mean that anyone with the shared link can access that content, as with all other shared links that are created. 

     

    Could you delete the invited users and instead follow these steps to create a shared link to the file?
