Question Can't download from Google Drive

[aliceinseattle]

Hi. Hope you can help me with this. So, like lots of folks, decided to use my phone to create a video. Works great, uploads smoothly to Google Drive. But Google Drive will not let me download it. When I click download, all I get is a link, a 2K file. And that won't even run. This is with all the default permissions attendant to my Google account.

Well, I did find a workaround. But I would still like to know how to get Google Drive to work. I transferred the file from Google Drive to iCloud Drive and downloaded to my PC from iCloud Drive.

Welcome to Android Central! How did you try to download the video? By tapping the 3-dot menu button associated with it and selecting Download? When I do that for a video, it downloads fully to the Download folder without difficulty.

Can you show a screenshot of the menu you're using to download the video?

I will do that.
