Why can't your client send you the file by email? Dropbox? Carrier pigeon?

It was over 100GB.

He isn't allowed to use Gmail and Dropbox for business purposes,

I guess the carrier pigeon option was out as it was getting it's nails trimmed today....maybe if we wait we can use old faithful "Trusty" the carrier pidgeon.

Or maybe if Upwork didn't have ussues with Chrome it would have worked in the first place, something we have been using for some time...now there is a thought.

100GB is above the limit anyway.

Hi Pete,

I`m sorry about the incovience this had caused you and would like to confirm that we've had a known problem with downloading files on Chrome.

If you and your client are using another browser but still experiencing the same problem please reach out to me via PM with more details.
Our team will reach out to you both and assist you further, thank you.
