How down download files through this link?

Hi guys:

 

I'm trying to download a large file through the link here: [removed]

 

 

But I always got an Error Message like this: 

And if I wanna copy it to my own Dropbox (I get 3TB plan while I trying to copy it), it will also show some error message. I wonder whether that error came up only because I got less space while the file is too large, or the link itself got some problem so actually other users could not download it either.

 

By the way, if there any method that I can use to see the size of each file in that shared link? It would be better for me to judge which plan I need to buy to copy this file.

 

Thanks to anyone who spend time reading this message, and looking forward to reply!

    What error message?

    What's certainly possible, but we'd need to know the exact error you received.

    Click the icon in the top right of your screenshot and change it to List.
