Permission denied ... Maybe you need to change permission over 'Anyone with the link'?

See original GitHub issue

I want to download a 16GB zip file on Google Drive using:

gdown https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1InfIal4y7OBMGNUDeldEmDxtD0MrewY8

I have already set the permissions on the file to ``Anyone with the link’’

But I get this error:

Permission denied: https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1InfIal4y7OBMGNUDeldEmDxtD0MrewY8 Maybe you need to change permission over ‘Anyone with the link’?

I’ve added a new feature to keep cookies https://github.com/wkentaro/gdown/pull/51. I hope this fixes this issue.

You can try pre-released version of this.

pip install -U --no-cache-dir gdown --pre

by default, cookies is enabled and saved into ~/.cache/gdown/cookies.json. You can disable it by gdown --no-cookies XXX
