Download a single file from "Shared with me" folder in OneDrive for Business
Hey all,
I just chatted with the owners of this area and this is going to be one of those head scratching explanations :) . Under the hood, the code path that controls single file download and multi-file download are actually separate (and very different apparently). In the SWM view, we were able to light up multi-file download very easily, but single file was a little bit tougher (different requirements). The good news is that the team is aware of the issue and looking at it in more depth. Thanks!

Yeap, this is something I have seen lately and that I did not expected. Adding some folks here that might help: Salvatore Biscari StephenRice
Yes, this is new for me too...
It is quite odd that it is possible to download multiple files, individually selected, but not single files.

StephenRice has anyone been able to identify a solution to the issue of single file download? I see this post in 2017 bit even in 2023 I am unable to download single file, but only multiple files as .zip. Any workaround would be of immense help.
