Download from MakerWorld

Why can I not download from MakerWorld? I can download one and then all the other give me a Download Block. Can you only download a limited number of file? Thank you

Your phrase “download block” doesn’t appear to reference a known browser error message.

It would be helpful if you provided the following:

  1. Computer
    1. PC (windows)
    2. Mac (macOS)
    3. Linux (distro)
    4. Phone
    5. Tablet
    6. Other
  2. Operating system version for whichever computer you noted above.
  3. Browser
    1. Name: Chrome, Safari, Opera or whatever else
    2. Version number of the browser
  4. MakerWorld
    1. Logged in? Yes/No?
  5. How many downloads did you request before this occurred?
  6. Error message (if one appears)
    1. Did an error message appear? Yes/No?
    2. What was the exact wording if it did appear?
  7. Did you have a VPN running while downloading?
    1. Yes/No?
    2. Which VPN?
    3. Which target country?

A general response based on the very little information you provided.

There are limitations on the number of downloads, but when this is reached, you are likely going to receive a challenge request do determine if you are a bot or a human.

A task you must complete that a bot is far less likely to understand rather than complete.

This is to make sure your usage is legitimate rather than a block or limitation on access.

Without most of the answers above, particularly your setup and the actual error warning. Everything is guess work.

Help us, help you.

My guess is that your browser is blocking the download and not Makerworld

I seem to remember needing to log in at some point?

This ( @rusty35 )… I think I was allowed to download 5 different items, then was blocked and told that I was not logged in. I was logged into the forum, oh, seperate login (same account info) for makerworld. Then everything was marshmallow unicorns and downloads galore. I think I still occasionaly get asked to verify the account, probably because I download so infrequently.

Login requirements went away and then came back again.

I haven’t heard they have gone away yet again.

I am unable to download any files. No error message just…nothing happens when i press download button. I am a registered user and login. Thank You

Periodically I get captcha presented - especially with parametric models where I’m generating muliple versions to download - perhaps your browser is blocking those popups?

I think that’s because the model has no files besides the print profile. It’s not any issues on your side, just get a different model.
