There are two scenario where you can get this error that says “Too many users have Viewed and Downloaded this file recently …..” -
- In case you have shared Folder and you are not able to download a file with the same error - Right click-> make a copy of that file and then Download that copy (Right Click-> Download)
- In case you have a shared link and you get this error “Too many users have viewed and Downloaded this file recently…”
Check the url which will look something like this https://drive.google.com/u/7/uc?id=<someID>&export=download
- Replace uc with open
- Remove "export=download"
- Link should look something like this "https://drive.google.com/u/7/open?id=<someID>&” hit Enter and Download the file.
