Where are downloading from: Adobe Document Cloud? Adobe Creative Cloud?
And from which computing device type and operating system (for example, iOS, AndroidOS, Google Chrome tablet, Microsoft Windows desktop (which version), macOS desktop (which version)?
In any case, I will assume you're referring to Adobe Document Cloud since many users have posted the same inquiry in these forums.

Yes, I am referring to the Adobe Document Cloud. I can use Android or Windows PC. I have seen these questions, but I figured maybe there is a new way since these have been posted 🙂
Thank you

++EDITED REPLY, fixed some typos and clarified some statements
The only way you can download many files at once is if you combine groups of file as PDF binders.
The file compressor (not the Adobe Cloud itslef), enforces a limit on the amount of files that can be compressed at one time, but not necesarily a file size limit (other restrictions apply as well -[his is true for every other cloud space services. All of them enforce some sort of restrictions on what can be downloaded and how to -]).
If you've already tried downloading many files, and you have seen before a message that says about file size limit, see the link below to get more insights:
However, you may work around this limitations with some creativity.
For instsnce, try grouping documents (or files) by combining them in a single PDF rather than fighting with the conventional method that everyone else seems to struggle with.
In other words, selecting files individually through the online web interface of Adobe Document Cloud may limit your ability to choose how much to download in bulk.
But, the true underestimated power of the Document Cloud falls in the abitlity to use PDF binders. By which, and depending on the point of view, is indeed a method to download many files in bulk.
In fact, you may bind (or combine altogether) a total of 50 or more documents per PDF binder.
And in the eyes of the online file compressor, that PDF binder counts as one file only.
You can download PDF binders (with many files in them) in this fashion.

OK. NEVER using Adobe again once I get my files downloaded. I should NOT have to do acrobats to get a FOLDER downloaded. Its too much work to download one at a time. CANCEL!

Even when you create binders, in order to download (or save as) many pdf files at once, you are going to lose the individual pdf file name if they all have different names. I was on a trial and wow.....what crappy app!!! Great for people that want to falsificate documents but when you try to do simple things, it makes you go crazy. The fact that as soon as I load a page, Acrobat has to move it, uncovering the cropped spaces I had, it's only giving me more work to do. I'm going to go back to my Preview app, do all I can from there and then put a watermark with other apps. Absolutely crap!!!

This is likely done to deter you from canceling your subscription, but prevents you from backing up your data also. It's unethical and I would high five anyone that can create a workaround for this.
