Can't download big file

See original GitHub issue

Hi! You’ve designed pretty nice tool. It works great with small files. But can’t handle big ones. For example I can’t download this file: gdown https://drive.google.com/uc?id=11SzYIezaF8yaIVKAml7kPdqgncna2vj7 It seems that it can’t pass the warning “Can’t scan file for viruses”

I just tried the same thing and can confirm what DimaZhu reported. Does not work for me either. I tried python3.6 with gdown 3.8.3. After that I also tried your setup (python 3.5, gdown 3.8.1). The problem is, that it ends up in an endless loop in download.py. It tries to redirect with confirmation but ends up at the “File to big for virus scan” page of google all the time.

Any suggestions on this?

(I’d like to reopen this issue please)

+1 does not work for files that are too large for virus scanning and gives permission error. @wkentaro e.g.: gdown --id 1XRAWYpMJeaVVXNN442xDgXnAa3pLBUvv
