How do I undo "download disabled"?

[shawn_maeder]

For some reason I can no longer download files from my site, where I am Instructor, or others in which I am a Student. I get the message "download disabled" and only get a file preview. What do I do to reset this feature?

Welcome to the Canvas Community!!!

First, can you confirm that your course and the content in it is not part of a Blue Print course?

Second, this document https://community.canvaslms.com/ideas/1732-make-a-file-read-only-but-not-downloadable-in-canvas  talks about how to disable downloads using HTML code.  This might be what is preventing you from downloading.  Other than that, there is not a way to prevent the download of files in a Canvas course.

Thanks for your reply. It's probably a Chrome thing.
