Hi
What is the file extension (last three characters) of the file that you are trying to download?
What is the address of the website that you are trying to download them from?
extensions of .mp4 or .mp3 or .mkv etc.
doesn't matter from where.
Thank you.
I think that this article gives some background to what you are seeing:
