you just took word of my mouth

Thanks Bro
So, so, so helpful! I'm fairly technical, and I was concerned that I would have to change my header file to achieve this exact feat. You gave a great workaround. I'm truly grateful for the time you spent creating this tutorial! You're a great example of why the Internet is so amazing!
Thank you for the kind words!

WOW! So helpful!!! I was scrolling around for HOURS watching and reading but not finding the answer. THIS IS THE WAY! Thank you!
Yes. This is the way. :)
Glad that this helped you. That's our goal with everything we do!
First time i am added a comment on a youtube video, every tutorial video on website should look like this.
Awesome! Quick and Clear, this is how all tutorials should be.
is this link no expiry?
@@ricalynvlog835 As long as your file remains on your Google Drive, the link will not expire.
Rules:
No changing somg
No changing my part
You can add a transition
Have fun

Download link: i dont know how to make
tysm my webpage would be so boring without you
Something that surely many do not know is that it can be done much easier with an html tag on your website or when the file ends it is an extension that the browser does NOT recognize, the file will be downloaded automatically or it will show a warning message warning that the device could be damaged.
Thank you for the straightforward instructions that actually worked.
Quick and concise, a rare combination these days.... Thanks a lot, really helpful!
Our pleasure! That's why we are here. To make life a little bit easier!!
I love this kind of tutorials, Simple and straight to the point❤❤
damm i just needed my aws systeam to auto apply a file and this saved my day
Bro! Thank You so much! You dont know how long i have been trying to find a video this helpful!!! (I dont even know!) Thank You!!
Thanks for the kind words, Aaron!
Super Helpful! No technical abilities, and this worked! Appreciate it
Perfect solution on a perfect day
Thanks so much!!!! I got how to do it except for the hyperlink option. How do you do a hyperlink?
A hyperlink is simply a link.
You can share your download link directly, or
link some text or an image. 👍🏻
@@Paperform I know, I was trying to figure out how to do it. I found that you can do it in an email but you can't do it in normal messages that I know of
After 2 months searching if FINALLY found it❤
wow! so cool!thank you from my heart , it was so easy and in not a tech person at all ...
Thanks Man ! it worked for me , was searching for it since 2 days for my funnel marketing campaign .
Awesome news!
Thank you so much! Now I can finally send my Minecraft Texture/Resource pack to my discord server!
You can also drag the resource pack file to discord and send it
I know, but the file was too big and needed nitro
So! Very! Helpful! We were trying a bundle of different alternatives but this was just what we needed.
This was really well put together. You deserve more likes and subs!
Thank you for the kind words!
Let us know if there is any other content you would like to see.
Stay safe!
Very Helpful, btw it works for all kinds of files like docs, ppts and etc.
thank you for that - quick and easy ...
you are most welcome!!
Thank you so much for that video ! It works well for me
OMGG THIS IS SUUUPPERRRR HELPFUL!!!! Thank you sm
This is epic. You're good
This worked fine except for one thing - after the link is clicked, the message 'google drive can't scan this file for viruses' pops up - It gives you the option to ignore the warning and just download but that won't work when trying to come across as professional. Would you know any way of getting rid of that warning?
wow! thank you so much...even though my file is too large and I think it takes lots and lots of time to even start downloading..
You saved my life man
legends say that this is the every programmer favorite video
This was great! Thanks for solving this puzzle!
🧩
Followed the steps, but did not work for me
bro you are the best i watched many video and i clicked on uour video then i like your video and i subscribed your channel too
Thank you for the kind words :)
This is awesome... short and straightforward
When I merge the two links together it is giving me an error message. Not sure what i am doing wrong.
My file is too big and it asks for confirmation because it cant scan it vor viruses. (Yes i alredy zipped it) Is there any way to solve this problem?
This is great! It's too bad that Microsoft Store requires not just a download link just to submit an exe installer file, but the download link has to start with https and it needs to have a version number in it!!!! It is so frustrating!
THANK YOU SOO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO.... It was really helpful !!!!
Will it work if I put this link in a button in an email?
Awesome question!
Yes, it will work. :)
As long as the hyperlink to the button within the email is set to be the direct download link you generated there will be no problem.
@@Paperform Sweet!! Thank you so much. ☺
Question - How do i remove the download prompts for files that are either (1) unknown type or (2) to large?
Hey bro just wish to thank for for this super helpful video ! Nice!
Thank you for the kind words!
Let us know if there is any other content you would like to see.
Stay safe!
Worked Perfectly. Thank you so much.
thanks bro this was actually helpful
You're total life saver, THANK YOU!!!
Amazing!!! This really helped :)
Thank you so much for the video, very easy to understand
Glad to hear it, Cherilyn. 😀
Thank you very much! Nice and informative video
I followed the instructions but still can only download the uc file :(
This is a great tutorial!!! As a non-technical person I was racking my brain how to create an automatic download. Your channel deserves more views!
Thank you for the kind words!
THANK YOU MAN YOU"RE AWESOME, your video saved me so much time, quick and to the point, made my day really :D
Awesome video thank you
Thank you! Can this be done for a whole google drive folder though? So users can automatically download all contents with in folders? Thanks!
Folders cannot be automatically downloaded.
Instead, create a zip file from your multiple files and upload this.
Then create an auto-download link from the zip file.
Best of luck 🙏🏻
Thank you so much, so helpful!!
Thank you! This is so very helpful. Quick question- when I access the link on mobile, I am prompted to choose a gmail account and then it takes me to the document instead of auto-downloading. Is there anyway to prevent this? (I want people to stay on the same page after clicking the link so that they can book a call)
What is the filetype?
@@Paperform it is a one page PDF
@@kap4343 And the device type you are attempting to download the file on?
@@Paperform I'm using a Google Pixel 6. I actually didn't try on any other mobile devices yet, but I do that now. The good part is that I am booking calls this week lol
helps alot. thank you
Thanks so much for the help! Good video
I tried this with an apk file, but it does not download directly like your video. It asks to choose Drive or Chrome and then takes us to the Drive page. How to force it to download directly without all the shenanigans.
APK Files are different as they are run through an application. You will want to check out the following link direct-apk-downloader.en.softonic.com/
Thank you sooo much for this! This was very clear and easy! Solved the problem.
I did this process using my google drive! works great for me, but people with out a google drive aren't able to view or download it! How can I fix this!! I need help !
dosent work
there is no way i can leave without a like
So I'm trying to generate a direct download for a folder in my google drive, rather than an individual file, so the link that I generate when I share it is a bit different than the one you generated. Any idea on how to fix this?
You would need to create a zip file, then upload this to Google Drive and follow the same process.
@@Paperform Thank you for your swift response!
Thanks so much dude. This was awesome
Thank you for a very helpful tip! ❤
This was super helpful thank you so much!!
I tried this with an mp3 but it's prompting me to choose a Google drive. Is there a way around this ?
Couldyou elaborate on what you mean "choose a Google drive"?
I think for some funny reasons, this doesn't work in the sense that the file gets corrupted once downloaded. It downloads with a default name “uc”. How can I solve this problem?
Hi Rockson, what was the original file type?
@@Paperform the original file was a pdf document
@@rocksonlhandon Strange that a PDF is being downloaded as a UC file type. This would be caused either be settings on your browser or by a device type that does not support downloading PDF files.
This process works great from a computer, but on a phone it just opens a page with the image/file. Any remedy for that?
That is dependant on the mobile device you use. An image file should have no issue in automatically downloading to your mobile device..
I want to automate unique .jpg images to different e-mails on spreadsheet from google drive. Is their a software that will grab the url's in bulk from a folder and create a CSV or excel sheet with the UC......code?
You absolute life saver! THANK YOU SO MUCH :)))
Is it possible to create a download link for a whole google drive folder? Or are we limited to one specific item at a time?
Thank you!
I've changed my accessibility and checked it several times to be sure, however when i click on the download link I added to my Linktree it still says access denied...
What was the file type Karis? :)
Will this work on static qr codes as well, I’m working on a educational project where people can just scan the qr codes and get the educational pdf file without the need to open google drive
Yes, this will work with static QR codes.
Adobe also offers a free QR code generator.
Feel free to let us know how else we can help. :)
Thanks! That was a quick and simple explanation and it works perfectly.
is this link no expiry?
Thanks. I loved the explanation, for me it was very easy and simple.
That is awesome news!
Thankyouuu very muchh, its so helpful 🌻🌻🌻👍🏻👍🏻✨✨
No worries! Happy to help :)
Thanks, this worked perfectly!
Oh so goooood 🎉 Thanks!
Thank you SOOOO much! Exactly what I was looking for :)
More than happy we could help :)
But how to do it and mine isn't downloading the file
Thank you! You helped me a lot.
everything worked except the end. i do not have the option to hyperlink the free download or even paste it on my webpage.
All you need to do is highlight the link you created, copy and paste it :)
Is there a way to do this for an entire folder in drive? When I try I get a 404 error
You would need to download a zip file of the folder itself and then upload this to your Google Drive.
@@Paperform Ah, Thanks.
But...that link dies if you replace the file with a new version?
Correct, replacing a Google file with an updated version will cause a break.
No workaround for this when generating automatic download links.
IT WORKS!!!
Thank you , that was rather helpful.
Wow, I can't thank you enough!!
I'm interested in knowing how to create a link so that you can only download a song once
You would need to use a more complex platform for this. It is not possible with a free file storage platform.
Lifesaver! Thank you!
How to download ZIP files without opening the web browser and seeing Google Drive link in the address bar? I just want to click on the link and to download ZIP file without opening the browser. Thanks
Good stuff! Thanks!
please make a video.. how to play automatic video play link .. for google drive video
Thankyou! 🙏
woo it worked
thanks :D
Does this work for videos as well?
Hi :)
Yes it works for MP4 files.
Anyway to do this with NOT a pdf? I tried it, and it didn't work.
What file type were you wanting to generate a direct download link with?
@@Paperform sorry for the late response, but an html
@@steepercreve How large is your HTML file, the generator allows HTML File Links to be converted into a direct download links without issue.
Perhaps you see an error message when using the generated URL?
thank you so much!!
This is brilliant! Thanks for sharing. I am wondering if this process would also work for outlook?
Thank you for the kind words Juvy. :)
Perhaps you could elaborate, outlook data files?
