The simple answer to your question is: if the person you are sending the link to does not have a Google account, they will not be able to download all the files in the folder at once. This still isn't possible in Google Drive, and, judging by the frosty response from Google when asked about it, it seems to be by design. It honestly looks like if you're sharing with friends, family or colleagues who might not have Google accounts, Google wants the user experience to be bad.
Since the question is from the point of view of the person creating the shared folder, there are two workarounds I'm aware of:. Clicking that 'Download' button with nothing selected simply downloads everything, as one zip file.
Or you can select and download individual folders. If you're using the web view, you have to create the folders manually, then select all in your folder and upload the contents. It's not too bad though, 5 clicks instead of 1. There's one other big advantage to OneDrive from a content creator's point of view: you can chose a sort order, including manual sort, and save it to be the folder's default sort order for people viewing it.
Viewing users can choose and save a different sort order for themselves, if they want, but you can control the default order.
You can create a compressed folder of the files and share a link to that compressed folder for them to download. Step 3: Optional Hold shift and click on anything you don't want to include in your e-mail in order to un-highlight it and keep it out of the downloaded file. Now that you have your files highlighted, some new icons should have appeared in the toolbar on the top right side of your Drive. Not the toolbar with the round picture of you or a generic blue dude on the right-hand side of it.
The toolbar directly beneath that one with the little gear on the right-hand side. If you do have a google account the UI is a bit different. There are breadcrumbs at the top showing the path to the folder you're in. After the current folder's name is a caret with a drop-down menu with a Download option. Clicking on that opens a little pop-over at the bottom showing the progress of zipping the folder into a file.
When that is complete, your browser begins downloading the zip file. Then there is a vertical dots button at the top right with a download option that does the same thing.
Use the download feature. Select the files you want to download. Choose the More and select Download A window will popup asking what format you want to download the files in. Make your choice, then click the blue download button.
And then locate the pictures in your current my drive folder and select to download the entire folder! ATM you can add the shared content to your drive option on top right and from there you can download the folder which will be automatically zipped. Thank you for your interest in this question.
