And Dropbox is telling you the solution right there; ask the owner to create a new link to the file.
The fact is that the link was banned for some reason. It could have been a bandwidth overage on the owner's account, a problem with the file such as a DMCA complaint, etc. There are many reasons why a link can be banned.
You need to contact the owner of the file.
