@Tarun Saini we can't receive private messages, I'm assuming per our licensing agreement. I'll approve your request to access the Google Doc.

Thanks for reaching out! Could you elaborate more on the issue? I've requested project access. Also, what file format are you trying to download? Is it happening with just this file or all files? 

 

Regards,

Tarun

I'm one of Alicia's Technology Specialists, here's a Google Doc with a couple of links, Project.

I've personally tried all of the suggestions and I still can't get it to download.

I can duplicate it, but I don't see anything in my notifications about a direct message.

Hi @alicia_4521

Thank you for testing the troubleshooting that you have tried so far. Would it be possible to create a duplicate instance of the file with the issue and share a link with us privately? We'll try recreating the issue ourselves, and if we're able to reproduce it, we will share it with our developers. I'll send you a direct message here on the forums to share the link.

Thanks,
Dave

I have tried all the tricks in this thread, but the file still will not download. "We are working on your file" -- It's been three days.

Hello @saesha_99885, thanks for reaching out and sorry you’re running into this issue. If your Adobe Express project is stuck for hours, it could be due to a heavy project size, a browser glitch, or temporary server delay. First, try switching browsers (like Chrome or Firefox), clearing your cache, or using the mobile app if you’re currently on desktop. Also, try downloading the project in a different format (like JPG or PNG instead of video or PDF) to see if that works. If none of these help, please let us know what device and platform you’re using, and whether this happens with all files or just one — a screenshot or screen recording would also help us investigate further.

Thanks,

Chaimaa

Hey @6629993 Duretz, Welcome to our Adobe Express community! Can you please provide more details on the file type (PDF, MP4, JPG, or PNG) and whether you can download other files or they also fail to download as this specific one? Does your file have any blank layers? 

Let us know so we can investigate this further. 

 

Best,

Amitej
