Hi,

As you pointed there are some limitations to the size we can download successfully using the browser. We are different than other services, since the files are stored encrypted in our storage servers, so the file needs to be transferred to your PC and gets decrypted using your Keys before being flushed to your local storage.

It's better if you use a normal browser window, rather than "incognito", since in incognito the storage space offered to the session is limited (100mb). Of course Mega can deal with that using memory, however using the persistent storage can give you the ability to download bigger files. Just make sure that you granted mega.nz permissions on your "persistent storage".

Thanks,

well.. i can say - yes i accepted all perms (even gave it mic and cam...) it doesnt work both on firefox and chrome so just... what i can say - back to google drive... (+ crack your encryption and download right from your server... im not dumb...). and even regular window (chrome ++ firefox) was closing all browser window... so... crap...
