There are generally three catalysts for Google Drive errors: your user account, your browser, or your Mac or even a combination of these. Surprisingly, Google Drive gives you several methods for downloading any file. So while there might be a glitch with one of them, others might work as usual. Fourth, if you double-click on photos and PDFs, or if you choose Preview from the top menu for any other file, you can then click the download icon at the top. Fifth, when you try to download a few files at once, Google Drive will create a zip archive.
There are instances where this archive could fail to download. To fix this, close the Google Drive tab — it will give you a warning that files were not saved, select Leave and the download should start properly. To fix this, log out of all Google accounts. Then only log back in with the account that should have access to the file you want to download and try again. The permission errors should now be resolved.
So clearing them both could help. The problem is that the process for each browser is quite different and making sure you delete all cached files and cookies is not easy. When you want full control over the data your browsers retain, you should use an optimization tool like CleanMyMac X. CleanMyMac X is a powerful but intuitive app that lets you tweak any part of your Mac in just a few clicks. You can scan your drive for old, unused files, get rid of mail attachments, free up RAM, reindex Spotlight, uninstall apps completely, and, of course, clean anything within your browser.
After you clear all cache and cookies, make sure the cookies themselves remain enabled for Google Drive to work properly.
With ad blockers rising in popularity over the past few years, some web apps started to inadvertently break in unexpected places.

Is it possible to download all folders from a shared Google Drive folder? I am sending this to people that don't have Google accounts, so they can't just press the blue Google Drive button I assume.
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.
To fix that, you need to click on the Leave site button when a pop-up appears that asks whether you want to Leave site or Cancel. Clicking the Leave button starts the download process. We have covered the Google Drive not downloading Zip files issue in detail. Do take a look for other solutions.
To enable cookies, open drive. Click on the tiny lock icon present on the left side of the address bar. Then, select Cookies from the list. In the pop-up window that appears, click on the Blocked tab. Check if you find any link related to Google. Click on that and hit the Allow button at the bottom. Finally, click on Done. Restart the page or the browser, and you should be able to download the files again. When someone sends you a Google Drive link to download files, you need to be signed in with the same account allowed to access those files.
Basically, Google Drive file sharing permissions works in two ways. The owner who generates a link for the file or the folder can let anyone with the link access the file. In that case, any Google account can be used to view or download files. But the owner can also restrict the files to a select few users only based on their email address.
In such cases, you need to switch your Google account to the right one. If you are a Google Chrome user, you can sign into multiple Google accounts. However, one of them is used as a default account. That account is also used for the Google Chrome sync feature. Whenever you receive a Google Drive link accessible from a different account, you need to switch to that account.
To do so, open drive. You will be signed in with the default account. Click on the profile picture at the top-right corner of the Drive screen. Your Google accounts will show up. Click on the one that you want to switch to. A new window will open where you are logged in with your second Google account. If you close the window and open the Google Drive website again, you will be logged in with the default account.
